SideBySide Later Stage EIS Fund
Investment Objective
The SidebySide (SBS) Later Stage EIS Fund is a new EIS Fund specialising in taking proven high-potential companies, and by using our expertise, develop them into successful commercial businesses.
The SidebySide USP
- High-touch model: we self-limit to eight Investee Companies simultaneously and meet with each of our companies at least 2 days a month to ensure each company is a winner.
- Co-investment by the Side by Side Partnership: members of the Side by Side Partnership may independently co-invest their own capital in up to 10% of the Fund.
- Lower Fees: We have the highest performance hurdle in the market (160%) and then a second hurdle at 400%. This is to show how serious are ambitions are about making exceptional returns for our investors. Investors also pay no initial fees, no admin fees or annual management fees so they retain 100% of their EIS benefit.
- Experienced Management: The SBS Later Stage EIS Fund is led by John Bailye, a serial, large and small company entrepreneur. John’s previous experience includes founding and building a billion-dollar business from start-up which grew to over $420million in revenue by 2006 (formerly on Nasdaq: DRTE); helping turn around a hospital pharmaceutical company into a net $125 million sale. John is supported by world-class mentors and advisers, all of whom are serial successful entrepreneurs in their own right. Each of them brings their unique expertise to support the companies that the Fund invests in.
Exit Strategy
The expected holding period of most investments will be between the minimum three years (for tax conditions) and up to eight-years. Investors should expect to hold their Investments for up to eight years, but attractive realisation opportunities may occur sooner, and some Investments may be held longer. Following the realisation of the Qualifying Shares in each Investee Company, the realisation proceeds will be paid to the Investors net of any accrued but unpaid fees (including performance fees).
We aim to sell our stake in our companies (or part of it) into private capital through our network of HNWI and Family Offices to ensure we get as little dilution as possible. We may also seek to IPO our companies or sell after year four if our founders request it.

Target Diversification
The Fund will seek to invest in up to eight later stage Transitional Companies with an established customer base and revenue. In addition to the eight Transitional Companies in the Fund we may also, very occasionally, make small investments in a few earlier stage companies if we believe the management and strategic opportunity might mature to make them future Fund members. The Fund will seek to invest in a minimum of three Companies for each Investor and a maximum of eight.
