Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Equity Gap?
Individual members make their own investment decisions on a deal-by-deal basis. The central team — led by Managing Director Fraser Lusty and Senior Investment and Portfolio Manager Rhona Bree — sources, vets, and presents opportunities, but each angel investor chooses whether to participate. Founder Jock Millican serves as Non-Executive Chair and guides the syndicate's overall strategy alongside a board that includes two non-executive directors from operational backgrounds.
Does Equity Gap participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
Equity Gap makes direct early-stage investments into operating companies and does not commit to external funds. The syndicate’s role is to present individual company opportunities to its members. Co-investment alongside other angel groups or early-stage funds in Scotland does occur, but the syndicate does not operate as a fund-of-funds.
How is Equity Gap related to LINC Scotland?
Founder Jock Millican chairs LINC Scotland, the national trade association for angel capital in Scotland. This relationship positions Equity Gap at the center of Scottish angel policy and deal-sharing, though the syndicate operates independently. Millican’s dual role helps Equity Gap influence the broader early-stage funding environment while accessing a network of fellow angel groups for co-investment and deal referrals.
