Case studies showcase the benefits of private capital and how our members support startups, founders and well-established businesses to grow, innovate and flourish.

UK Private Capital relies on case studies in a range of engagement opportunities with senior politicians, parliamentarians, officials and other external stakeholders, to demonstrate our industry’s contribution to growth, innovation, talent, competitiveness and sustainability across the UK. Case studies – and visits to member-backed firms – bring the impact of the industry to life for key stakeholders and help us to make the case for the value of the industry.

In recent years case studies have proved vital at moments of potential crisis when engaging with policymakers, including during COVID-19. A regular pipeline of fresh case studies is important to UK Private Capital, and we encourage members to engage through a range of activities listed below. Members can register their interest in our case study initiatives by submitting case studies via our online form.
