Vincent invests in Gita’s women’s fund

I hear that two people featured in Big Business in February have decided to go into business together.

Property tyconn Vincent Tchenguiz has pledged £2 million to the Trapezia Investment Fund created by Gita Patel as the first dedicated to back women-friendly companies.

Gita is reported as saying:  “Having the backing of Vincent is incredible. It is not easy to gain contacts like him because the gatekeepers of the financial world are often very insular. But he loved our concept immediately and wants to look at exporting the brand”.

Although purely coincidental, I’m chuffed that two of my ‘movers and shakers’ are collaborating in this way. I hope it works out well because both of them are people who really make business tick these days.

Thanks for reading Big Business
