== Investment strategy == Haatch is a generalist early stage fund that follows an investment strategy focusing on areas the team knows well from previous business experience. This leads the team to focus on software-as-a-service, on-demand, gig-economy and digital consumer business models in particular. Haatch invests in both pre-seed and seed businesses, with a sweet spot for companies with a product and some early traction. This strategy aligns with the start-up program Scott and Fred ran while at Kiddicare, which identified, incubated and mentored promising businesses, some of which have since sold for over $1 billion. Haatch’s strategy has a good reach across the UK regions, with Haatch’s main office based near Peterborough in the Midlands. Over the past 8 years, the team has invested in a portfolio now averaging over 10x investment value before tax relief. The EIS fund portfolio includes businesses such as pubX, Aerocloud Systems and Toothfairy. The team is composed of 6 investment professionals and regularly invests personally alongside the fund. To date, the team has committed capital equalling 12% of total invested assets, meaning the team has significant alignment and ‘skin in the game’ when managing investors’ capital. Alongside the partners, the team has backgrounds in finance and startups. The target portfolio size for each EIS investors is 4-6 companies, which is quite concentrated compared to some other managers. The fund writes initial tickets into companies of between £100,000 and £500,000, with the ability to follow-on where its portfolio companies continue to grow and perform.
