Blenheim Chalcot is a leading active venture investor with operations in London and Mumbai. 

Blenheim Chalcot traces its roots back to netdecisions, the internet services group founded in 1998. Back then, we set out to create companies that could transform industry sectors. 

We have since built over 20 businesses in a variety of sectors, including IT services and outsourcing, financial services, education, travel, software, sport and media. Today, our companies have sales of over £300m and employ in excess of 3000 people. Working with entrepreneurs and co-founders, we continue to create and build businesses in these sectors, often from the ground up.

We have developed a number of principles which determine the businesses and industries we engage in. We look for high growth, potentially large industry sectors, typically undergoing some market, technology or regulatory discontinuity, where we can build scalable, platforms that satisfy a significant customer need, resulting in strong and sustainable margins. 

We also have a proven approach to developing companies and their teams. We think of them as our building blocks – the DNA of successful growth companies. The five building blocks combine agile strategy, disciplined governance, processes and financial management, all underpinned by agile leaders and teams. 

In order to support our businesses, particularly in their earlier stages of growth, Blenheim Chalcot also provides a range of services, covering technology, marketing and sales, recruitment, accounting, legal and property. This combination of great teams, a supportive environment and continual innovation helps us create established leaders in their fields.
