Analyse your fitInvestment thesis
Haatch operates SEIS and EIS funds investing in UK-based pre-seed and seed B2B SaaS companies that solve deep, visceral pains for their customers or create massive impact for organisations. The firm's own shorthand is "B2B SaaS solving (deep) pains in the present and/or creating massive impact for orgs," with a focus on companies that have a clearly defined buyer and early evidence of product-market fit. Founded by multi-exit operators Scott Weavers-Wright OBE and Fred Soneya, Haatch brings hands-on founder experience to every investment. The team specialises in founder-led sales and building early sales teams, with the explicit goal of accelerating portfolio companies to their first £1m ARR and building the infrastructure to reach £10m+. Sectors of particular focus include Fintech, Future of Enterprise, and Vertical SaaS, with the portfolio spanning applied AI, healthtech, edtech, proptech, and retail-tech. At least 75% of British Business Investments co-invest capital is deployed outside London and the South East.
