Investment overview
1. Summary
Mindflair is a company focused on investing in next generation technology with
a focus on the application of AI to transform large traditional industries.
Mindflair invests in its portfolio companies directly, or indirectly, as set
out below, through: (i) its investments in three funds managed by Sure Valley
Ventures ("SVV") and (ii) its investment in Sure Ventures plc.
Investments SVV1 SVV2 SVV3 Sure Ventures plc
Direct Getvisibility, Low6 and Precog 13% 6.1% 16% 21.3%
Indirect 5.9% via Sure Ventures plc 1.3% via Sure Ventures plc Holds stakes of 25.9% of SVV1 and 5.9% of SVV2
Cornerstone investor Enterprise Ireland British Business Bank Enterprise Ireland
Net interest 18.9% 7.4% 16.0% 21.3%
The above table does not include the effect of the additional investment in
Sure Ventures plc which took place in August 2024 and which increased the
Company's shareholding to 23.8%.
The Company's principal investment portfolio categories are summarised below:
Category Cost or valuation at 30 June 2024 Cost or valuation at 31 December 2023
£000s £000s
Investment in Sure Valley Ventures 7,124 4,932
Direct investments 1,534 1,563
Cash/other listed securities 360 206
Total 9,018 6,701
During the period under review, the Company's investment portfolio grew
significantly, principally driven by an increase in the valuation of the
Company's investment in Sure Valley Ventures due to the sale of the holding in
Landvault to Infinite Reality for US$450 million. Post period end in July
2024, the Company undertook a placing to raise £925,000 before expenses in
July 2024, however, the cash balance above as at 30 June 2024 does not include
the proceeds from this placing.
2. Sure Valley Ventures Fund ("SVV1")
SVV1 is SVV's first fund which has completed its new investment phase and has
now entered into its realisation phase. It has already achieved four
realisations/liquidity events to date, with more expected in the short term.
Within the SVV1 portfolio, highlights during the period include:
- Getvisibility is a cybersecurity company focusing on data visibility
and control and uses state-of-the-art artificial intelligence ("AI") to
classify and secure unstructured information. Getvisibility, one of the
Company's larger investments, has continued to make good progress during the
period. In particular, post period end, Forcepoint launched a comprehensive
security solution for generative AI platforms part of which is powered by
Getvisibility.
Mindflair also has a direct interest in Getisibility and, an additional
indirect interest through SV plc.
- LandVault, a large metaverse builder, was sold to Infinite Reality for
US$450 million in an all-share transaction. SVV1 has a 7% shareholding in
Landvault and Infinite Reality is expected to seek a listing on Nasdaq. This
transaction has the potential to generate proceeds of circa US$6 million for
Mindflair, although there can be no guarantee that a listing will take place.
- Smarttech247 Group plc (AIM: S247) is an established global
artificial intelligence-based cybersecurity business, specialising in
automated managed detection and response. SVV1's shareholding was sold
during the period.
As at the period end, SVV1 had a portfolio of 11 investee companies at
different stages of development, spanning a range of sectors. This portfolio
provides Mindflair with exposure to a number of key, cutting-edge and rapidly
growing technology sectors. Further details of the portfolio companies and

3. Sure Valley Ventures UK Software Technology Fund ("SVV2")
In March 2022, the Company invested in a second SVV fund, the Sure Valley
Ventures UK Software Technology Fund. The principal investor in SVV2 is the
British Business Bank ("BBB") an investment arm of the UK Government. The
first close of this fund amounted to £85 million, with the BBB investing up
to £50 million and other investors ("Private Investors"), including
Mindflair, investing up to £35 million over the 10 year life of the fund.
Mindflair expects to invest up to £5 million in total over the life of the
fund which would provide it with a circa 6.1% interest. SVV2 invests in a
range of private UK software companies with a focus on companies in the
Artificial Intelligence sector and within the subsectors of AI in the
enterprise, AI in Immersive Technologies (such as AR/VR) and AI in
Cybersecurity sectors.
SVV2 is managed by the same SVV team which, to date, has been highly
successful in achieving a number of cash realisations from, and upward
revaluations of, companies in the SVV1 portfolio. The profit share
arrangements within SVV2 are designed to encourage the involvement of private
investors alongside the BBB, meaning that Mindflair and the other Private
Investors would expect to receive a significantly enhanced share of the total
return generated by the fund compared to industry standard.
SVV2 made one new investment during the period in Ittybit, a pioneering
developer tools company. This portfolio now comprises five investments which
are described below:
RetÌnÍZE Limited RETiniZE Limited is an award-winning creative-tech company based in Belfast,
Northern Ireland. The company is developing an innovative software product
called Animotive that is harnessing the latest VR and Generative Al
technologies to transform the 3D animation production process.
Jaid Jaid is a rapidly growing platform that uses Al as a Service (AIaaS) solution
to help businesses reduce costs, improve efficiency and make data-driven
decisions, including client service automation, sales automation, payment
exception processing and claims administration processing. Jaid is working
with major banks, wealth managers, fund administrators and clearing banks on a
global basis
Captur Captur is a company that has built an enterprise AI platform for real-time,
rules-based image recognition. Existing investors, MMC Ventures and Ascension
Ventures participated in this round, along with other investors including
ex-Deliveroo, and enterprise AI investors Concept Ventures and Two Culture
Capital, backers of ElevenLabs and Electric AI.
The company's technology uses Edge AI, the implementation of artificial
intelligence in an edge computing environment, which allows calculations to be
completed nearby to where data is created, rather than an offsite data centre
or a centralised cloud computing facility. This localised processing allows
Captur's technology to make decisions using visual AI in under 3 seconds.
Captur's visual AI solution is fast to implement and offers product owners
easy-to-embed APIs and SDKs that act as a smart camera within their mobile
apps. Captur is currently being used in the delivery sector for drivers to map
doorways and verify the correct address, reducing delivery to incorrect
addresses and fraud by up to 40%. Captur has recently made significant
progress on new business and product features. They have launched their real-
time camera SDK into production, which is now being used by tens of thousands
of users per month. They have continued to grow their market lead in mobility
with plans to launch with new clients in the US and AUS markets in H1'24. They
are also expanding into delivery and logistics and are in late-stage
negotiations with a Fortune 100 retailer in the US.
Ittybit Limited Ittybit provides cutting-edge APIs and tools designed to simplify the
uploading, storing, and delivery of large video, image, and audio files.
Leveraging state-of-the-art computer vision models, Ittybit empowers
developers to filter unsafe uploads, enhance content searchability, and
automate tagging and transcription processes. A standout feature of Ittybit's
offering is its innovative AI-based compression tool (akin to those used by
industry giants like Netflix and Meta) which ensures faster downloads and
reduced storage costs without compromising visual quality.
Vortex IQ Limited ("Vortex IQ" Vortex IQ is an AI-powered automation platform for e-commerce. Vortex IQ's
AI-driven platform provides actionable insights and seamless implementation,
enhancing efficiency and Customer Lifetime Value. Positioned to meet the
growing demand for intelligent automation, it offers tools for staging,
coding, data backup, and migration.
Post the period end in August 2024, SVV2 made three further new investments in
PHINXT Robotics Limited ("PHINXT"), Purple Transform Limited ("Purple
Transform") and Learn Cycle Limited ("Stylus Education"). PHINXT is an
innovative AI-led robotics software company that is redefining warehouse
automation and Vortex IQ is an AI-powered automation platform for e-commerce.
Purple Transform is a data analytics platform focused on enhancing safety,
security and efficiency across industries such as rail and wider transport.
Stylus education is an Edutech company whose platform, LearnCycle, uses AI to
automate paper-based assessments, cutting down hours of marking while keeping
the quality of personalised feedback intact.
4. Sure Valley Ventures III Limited Partnership ("SVV3")
On 23 February 2023, Mindflair announced that it had agreed to invest in SVV's
new venture capital fund, SVV3, alongside Enterprise Ireland, the fund's
cornerstone investor that committed 50% or €15 million to the fund. SVV3
plans to invest in circa 15 high-growth Al software companies in sectors such
as Enterprise, Immersive Technologies and Cybersecurity across the Republic of
Ireland.
In June 2024, this fund made its first investment in Inspeq AI, a
transformative full-stack AI Ops platform, alongside Delta Partners and a
number of other leading investors. Inspeq AI aims to become the trusted
source of safe and reliable AI development, enhancing generative ("Gen") AI
application deployment with its comprehensive platform designed for effective
and efficient production. The platform addresses AI performance issues
throughout the Large Language Model ("LLM") development lifecycle, ensuring
optimal safety and ethical compliance. Inspeq AI's advancements have notably
reduced security and hallucination (events in which machine learning models
produce outputs that are coherent and grammatically correct but factually
incorrect or nonsensical) issues by up to 80%, significantly improving
reliability and trustworthiness.
5. Sure Ventures plc ("SV plc")
SV plc (LSE: SURE) is a London-listed investment trust which invests in
early-stage software companies in the rapidly growing technology areas of
Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, Internet of Things and artificial
intelligence. As at 30 June 2024, Mindflair had a 21.3% shareholding in SV plc
whose principal investment is a 25.9% interest in SVV1 and a 5.9% interest in
SVV2.
Post period end, the Company increased its investment in Sure Venture plc in
order to increase its exposure to SVV1, which the Company expects to make some
exciting realisations in the short term, and SVV2. SV plc also announced a
significant increase in NAV as a result of the Landvault disposal which also
resulted in a sharp increase in this company's share price.
6. Direct investments
Getvisibility Details of this investment are covered in the section above.
Low6 Low6 continues to focus on its underlying revenue growth and scaling as the
leading Free2Play supplier in the iGaming, sports betting and sports
verticals, whilst continuing to expand its in-app purchase revenue approach as
part of the company's mobile gaming strategy. The company's accounts for the
period to July 2024 are expected to be finalised soon which are expected to
show significant revenue growth and positive EBITDA.
