We’re thrilled to share that Haatch has been named Seed VC of the Year at the 2025 UKBAA Awards, a prestigious recognition of the exceptional year our team has delivered across the early-stage investment ecosystem.

This latest accolade follows two other major wins this year, Fund of the Year at the SeedLegals Startup Awards and Best SEIS Investment Manager at the EISA Awards, firmly cementing Haatch’s position as one of the UK’s leading early-stage investors.

A Year of Exceptional Progress

This hat-trick of awards reflects a standout year for Haatch. We’ve seen:

• Three exits across both SEIS and EIS funds, including a fund returner
• Our portfolio surpass £1 billion in aggregate value
• A further £10 million commitment from the British Business Bank, investing alongside every SEIS and EIS deployment, taking their total commitment to £27 million
• Record levels of deployment and continued support for businesses solving meaningful problems for enterprise

Behind every win is an incredible team, a loyal investor base, and a portfolio of world-class founders who continue to build and scale with purpose.

Recognition That Fuels the Next Chapter

While we’re proud to be recognised, our focus remains firmly on delivering results, for the founders we back and the investors who trust us. These awards reflect the strength of our model, but the real reward is in building transformative businesses together. We’re just getting started, and we’re excited to keep proving what’s possible when conviction meets execution.
