Burlywood Capital is a highly experienced investment and management team led by operating partners Mark Blandford and Andrew Burnett along with Neil Goulden and Sir David Michels. The blend of experience, knowledge and track record within the Burlywood team is, we think, unique. Within our four partners we have Chief Executives and Chairs of FTSE-100 companies, founders of fast-growing businesses, corporate turn-around specialists, entrepreneurs, venture capital investors and capital markets professionals.
The Burlywood Capital partners specifically have a record of recognising and exploiting opportunities that arise from cycles in the gaming, gambling and entertainment markets as well as having substantial expertise in management, governance, mergers and acquisitions and refinancing through capital markets.
We will add significant value to the companies we invest in :
• Exploiting our extensive network of industry, financial and government-level contacts the partners have access to, allowing partner companies to source high quality specialist staff and managers as well as sourcing high quality business development opportunities.
• Harnessing our knowledge base and experience across entrepreneurial, managerial, mergers and acquisitions and capital markets disciplines to help company strategy, refinancing, expansion and ultimately realisation of investment through either a trade sale, recapitalisation or IPO.
• Introducing you to our other portfolio companies and cross-promoting goods, services and ideas across the Burlywood Capital portfolio, allowing your company to achieve ‘best practice’ disciplines.
