Enterprise Investment Scheme

The Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) is a UK government initiative designed to encourage investment in small, high-growth companies. It offers tax benefits to investors, such as income tax relief and capital gains tax exemptions, to make investing in startups more attractive and reduce their funding risks. In return, investors fund these emerging businesses, helping them grow. The scheme aims to support innovation, create jobs, and help new companies succeed, while offering potential financial advantages to investors willing to take on the higher risks associated with early-stage enterprises.
