Index-backed startups create 3,000 UK jobs every year. Many founded by foreign born founders. We need more, not fewer of them.

I’ve been an investor for 18 yrs & seen multiple macroeconomic shocks. Every shake-up resulted in a deeper bench of companies and founders emerging. I'm excited we have $3.1bn of fresh capital to support them.
