Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Oxbridge Angels?
The investment committee, chaired by Yasrine Ibnyahya, makes funding decisions. The committee comprises 22 members who are predominantly still employed in operating roles across sectors — a deliberate design to bring current industry insight into deal evaluation. Co-founders Rashid Zuberi and Stephen Lile serve as advisors rather than full-time fund managers.
Does Oxbridge Angels participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
Based on available disclosures, Oxbridge Angels makes only direct investments into companies, with no mention of fund-of-fund commitments. Scale-up financing beyond its own check size is routed to Oxbridge Ventures, described as a partner VC fund, though no details on that vehicle's structure, size, or relationship are publicly available.
Which sectors does Oxbridge Angels explicitly avoid?
The firm publishes no explicit sector exclusions. Its stated focus is on highly scalable UK-based businesses, and the professional backgrounds of its investment committee suggest exposure to enterprise software, AI/ML, fintech, digital health, and climate technology. Sectors requiring deep hard-tech capital intensity — such as semiconductors or industrial biotech — are not referenced in its materials.
