📈 Lots of interesting points in the #AutumnStatement - more for R&D tax credits, pension reform including the Venture Capital Investment Compact. 🌅 But the extension to the EIS/VCT sunset clauses to 2035 is a big win and will provide certainty for investors and is a huge boost for early-stage businesses across the UK. Big credit to Christiana Stewart-Lockhart, Will Fraser-Allen, Stuart Veale, David Hall, Seb Wallace, Philip Hare, Sarah Barber, John Glencross, Mark Payton, Enrico D'Angelo, Michael Moore, David Mott, Bruce Macfarlane, Guy Rainbird, Roderick Beer, Olivia Green, Kerry Baldwin and many others for getting this over the line. 🎉🎉🎉 #venturecapital #sunsetclause #innovation

Thank you Chris and thank you for all your support with this! Really fantastic news!

Excellent to have that substantial extension rather than piecemeal. Well done!

Finally! Congratulations Chris Elphick
