Crasner Ventures

Created by an award-winning entrepreneur, Crasner Ventures is a venture capital platform dedicated to investing in start-ups and early stage businesses that are founded by women, and entrepreneurs of diverse backgrounds. Our mission as a VC platform is to invest and advocate for greater diversity and inclusion in the venture capital industry, and to increase access to capital for those demographics that have previously been underfunded and underrepresented. Our Founder, Nick Crasner, is recognised as one of the UKs most effective diversity advocates. He was one of the very first investors in the UK (and globally) to proactively seek out opportunities to support Female Founders and Founders of diverse heritage From a direct investment perspective, Crasner Ventures is sector agnostic but has particular interests in supporting start-ups in the consumer, recruitment and technology sectors. We invest our Founder's capital via debt or equity.
