Growthdeck Rebrands as Your VC, Ushering in a New Era of Accessible Venture Capital

New leadership, new identity, new website – Your VC puts investors back in control

London, UK – 7 October, 2025 – Growthdeck today announced its rebrand to Your VC, marking a significant step in its mission to transform the venture capital experience for individual investors. The new identity follows the recent appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, signalling a fresh chapter for the business as it looks to broaden access to UK innovation opportunities. A redesigned website has also been launched to reflect the company’s renewed vision: www.yourvc.co.uk.

“At Your VC, we believe venture capital should feel different,” said Freddie Hamilton, Chief Executive Officer of Your VC. “Too often, individual investors are asked to commit capital without rigorous scrutiny of opportunities, or the ongoing support they deserve once invested. We exist to change that — putting control firmly back into the hands of our investors.”

Your VC: A New Approach to Venture Investing
Since its inception in 2016, Your VC (formerly Growthdeck) has supported over 30 businesses, invested more than £50 million on behalf of clients, and delivered four successful exits. Its rebrand underscores a sharpened focus on connecting individual investors with early-stage UK companies through the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) and Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS).

Unlike traditional funds, which limit choice, or crowdfunding platforms, which may lack institutional-level due diligence, Your VC combines rigorous investment screening with investor flexibility. This allows clients to build tailored portfolios while benefiting from the tax efficiencies of SEIS and EIS, alongside the reassurance of institutional-quality oversight.

The UK has long been a cradle of global innovation — from the steam engine and jet propulsion to fibre optics, the World Wide Web, and the first approved Covid-19 vaccine. SEIS and EIS extend this tradition, offering a powerful way to back the next generation of UK entrepreneurs while supporting wealth creation for investors.

Your Capital. Your Control.
Your VC is built on a simple philosophy: Your Capital. Your Control. The firm not only identifies and diligences high-potential ventures but also guides and supports investors throughout their journey — ensuring they remain informed, empowered, and in control.

“As we embrace our new identity, we remain committed to applying the highest standards of scrutiny to every opportunity, while ensuring our investors feel supported at every stage,” added Kieron Launder, Chairman of Your VC. “We are proud to play our part in the long tradition of UK innovation, backing founders whose businesses have the potential to change their markets.”
