Stated investment criteria

What ScaleUp Capital says it buys

Read from ScaleUp Capital’s own website in August 2026. This is what the firm says it buys, not what anyone has recorded it buying, and figures are shown in the currency the firm itself used - nothing here is converted. Every line links to the page it was read from.

Stated holding period4-6 years1

A stated mandate is a firm’s description of itself and was true of the page on the day it was read; firms widen and narrow what they will look at without updating the site. Nothing here is a commitment by ScaleUp Capital to consider any particular business, and nothing on this page is represented as being for sale.
