Symvan Capital, a leading UK venture capital firm specialising in EIS and SEIS funding for high-growth technology companies, reinforces its strategic commitment to investing in AI directly supporting Minister Kanishka Narayan’s initiative to position the UK as a global leader in artificial intelligence.
The commitment comes at a pivotal moment for the UK’s AI sector, with AI investment predicted to surge approximately 149% between now and 2030. This substantial growth trajectory underscores the increasing recognition of the importance of AI technologies in driving economic prosperity and innovation across British industries.
Symvan Capital already backs TIKOS®, the UK-based, early-stage AI startup founded in 2024 , demonstrating the firm’s commitment to identifying and nurturing AI businesses that align with national strategic priorities. The UK government has demonstrated its commitment to AI leadership by backing the sector with more than £1.6 billion in investment, ensuring British expertise continues to develop cutting-edge technologies that can compete on the global stage.
Symvan Capital’s CEO, Kealan Doyle commented, “The UK is a global leader in Artificial Intelligence, and our investment in TIKOS® demonstrates Symvan’s commitment to backing innovative AI growth businesses that align with the government’s vision for the sector. We are proud to support Minister Kanishka Narayan’s drive to position the UK at the forefront of AI development.”
The timing of the investment commitment reflects broader market confidence in AI technologies, with corporations expecting to double their spending on AI in 2026, from 0.8% to about 1.7% of revenues. This significant shift demonstrates that businesses on a multi sector basis are prioritising AI as a key driver of innovation and competitive advantage.
