Sarah joined Mountside Ventures as an Investment Manager with the goal of ensuring our clients are investor-ready, leveraging her experience as a founder.

Mountside Ventures is Europe’s leading startup & VC accelerator, and early-stage advisory firm. We are the first port of call for founders and investors looking to fundraise, and are on a mission to optimise the fundraising process. For pre-seed and seed startups, we run the UK’s leading fundraising accelerator programme (free to participate, including equity-free), backed by corporates and the government.

For Series A and Series B companies, we provide interim CFO and fundraising support, enabling founders to raise their next round of funding faster, more efficiently and causing the least disruption.

For VCs, we run Europe’s first VC Accelerator, The Emerging VC Manager Programme, the gold standard in accelerating Europe’s exceptional fund managers through a combination of workshops, world-class mentoring, and LP & Family Office introductions.

For Limited Partners, we provide access to best-in-class emerging Venture Capital funds through our annual Funding Venture Conference and VC Accelerator.

For Family Offices, we run the VC Academy – a two-day programme designed for FOs looking to invest in tech, covering venture strategies, sector deep dives, how to be a VC insider, deal sourcing, term sheet negotiation, diligence, management and exit.

Mountside Ventures is proud to be a certified B Corp, is regulated by the ICAEW, and is a member of the BVCA, UKBAA and EISA.
