Triple Point VCT 2011 plc
(the "Company")
INVESTMENT UPDATE
The Board of Triple Point VCT 2011 is pleased to announce that the Venture Share class (known as The Venture Fund) has completed its 13th, 14th and 15th investments.
An investment of £150,000 was made into 3D imaging and software business Artificial Artists. Set up by senior visual effects experts, Artificial Artists makes CGI cheap and easy-to-use for brands and marketing agencies. Their cloud-based product, 3DCTRL, is a live animation and editing tool that allows users to adjust CGI marketing assets in real time. The tool empowers marketing agencies to create visual effects in house, rather than using expensive external studios, and allow brands to edit assets quickly and easily.
An investment of £150,000 was made into Veremark, a background checking company using proprietary technology to dramatically decrease the time it takes to complete verification checks. Traditionally, checks are done as part of an employee recruitment process. They are often time-consuming, manual and expensive, with over 40 human touch points. Veremark automates the background checking work flow, to offer a product with a quicker turnaround time and better experience than competitors on the market.
An investment of £500,000 was made into a business which provides businesses with a toolkit to encrypt sensitive data, so that the data can be shared inside and outside an organisation based upon the access rights of a user, significantly reducing the likelihood of data breaches. The company's toolkit automates data privacy, protection and governance and allows company data protection policies to be customised on an individual user basis. Typically, personal data sits in silos within organisations, and is manual and costly to maintain and inconsistently protected and accessed.
The investments are each in line with the Company's investment criteria and risk and return profile.
