Our track record has seen us build more than 60 businesses over the last 25+ years. The portfolio has annual revenues of £500m, employs more than 3,000 people, has raised £600m in equity, and secured exists totaling over £1bn. 

Blenheim Chalcot has three global locations. Portfolio companies are headquartered from Scale Space, London, our 200,000ft2 collaboration space which was built as a joint venture with Imperial College London. Our Mumbai offices provide unparalleled scaling capability and technical expertise, and our U.S. operation powers the go-to-market activities of the portfolio across North America.
