Calculus capitalises on lifted EIS sunset clause with new fund

The offer has a minimum investment threshold of £5,000, and the managers hope to attract "seasoned and new investors".

John Glencross, chief executive and co-founder of Calculus Capital, said: "Our journey since launching the first HMRC approved EIS fund in 1999, has been one of growth.

"With this VCT offer, we are further solidifying our pledge to back the UK's most promising businesses. We believe that through this VCT, investors can not only benefit from capital growth and tax-free dividends, but also play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the UK's innovation landscape."
