The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what is the maximum amount of investment that the National Security Investment Fund can provide.

Answered by Kanishka Narayan

NSSIF has no specific minimum or maximum amount of investment, and invests through a range of cheque sizes, co-investing typically at Seed or Series A. NSSIF tends to take a minority stake and not lead the rounds. Details of many of the companies in NSSIF's investment portfolio are published on NSSIF's website
