Die Überschrift und die Zwischenüberschrift verraten uns, was Sie anbieten – die Formularüberschrift gibt dem ganzen den letzten Schliff. Hier können Sie erklären, warum Ihr Angebot so toll ist, dass es sich lohnt, dafür ein Formular auszufüllen.
Denken Sie daran:
The applicant's business is original, creates competitive advantage and is something new.
The applicant's business demonstrates realistic sustainability and long-term success.
The applicant's business demonstrates potential growth, through job creation and growth into national markets.
The Start-up and Innovator visa categories are for non-European Economic Area nationals wishing to set up a business in the UK. To qualify for a visa, applicants must obtain an endorsement from an approved endorsing body - such as Sapphire Capital Partners LLP.
It is very important that any entrepreneur wishing to obtain the startup or innovator visa first obtains an endorsement from an approved body - such as Sapphire Capital Partners LLP. We are here to ensure that your business meets the three key criteria - being innovation, viability and scalability.
Please refer to the Government Website for the eligibility criteria for Innovator and Start-up Visas.
If you use the same business plan, the application will automatically be rejected. In the case of a new business plan/idea, this will be assessed on its own.
Sapphire Capital accepts applications directly and through trusted third-party intermediaries (such as Seed Mentors Entrepreneurs Limited). For any direct applications, Sapphire Capital will outsource an initial review of the application to one of the trusted third-party intermediaries if we believe that the application may be of interest to us (and consequently we will, therefore, share your data with them). They may charge you a fee for their initial review which will be confidential to us and they may seek further information directly from you.
Although Sapphire Capital does not charge any fees for considering applications, the third-party introducers (such as Seed Mentors Entrepreneurs Limited) who approach us may charge fees or seek equity for services they provide to their clients. Such arrangements do not involve Sapphire Capital.
PLEASE NOTE THAT IS USUAL AND SAPPHIRE CAPITAL WILL EXPECT TO TAKE EQUITY IN ANY COMPANIES WE ARE SUPPORTING WITH AN ENDORSEMENT (OF CIRCA 5% to 10%).
