Beringea

Beringea is a transatlantic venture capital and growth equity firm founded in 1988 by Charles Rothstein and Malcolm Moss, with offices in Farmington Hills, Michigan and London, making it one of the longest-running technology investors with a genuine footprint in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Note: the original directory lists this firm as London-headquartered, but Beringea's founding and primary US operations are based in Michigan, with London representing its UK investment arm. The firm manages more than $715 million in assets under management across its US and UK vehicles, investing primarily at Series A and Series B stages in companies generating meaningful revenue and preparing for the next phase of growth. Beringea invests across a broad range of sectors including healthcare, technology, media, consumer goods, and business services, reflecting three decades of experience operating through multiple economic cycles. Its UK operations include ProVen VCT and ProVen Growth and Income VCT, tax-efficient investment vehicles on the London Stock Exchange that have operated for twenty-five years, providing a listed route for UK retail investors to access growth company exposure. The US operations focus on Midwest-based companies in particular, providing growth capital to technology and healthcare businesses in a region underserved by coastal venture capital. With more than 280 investments and 60 exits across its history, Beringea brings institutional experience and a transatlantic network that few firms of similar vintage can match. Notable portfolio companies include Fnatic, the esports organisation; Monica Vinader, the UK jewellery brand; Dealroom.co, the startup and investment data platform; and EDITED, a retail analytics platform. The original portfolio list includes StubHub, Metaswitch, HealthIQ, and Hiya.
