A statement from our CEO, Ian Zant-Boer:


“In light of recent Government announcements, and the developing situation in the UK and worldwide, I wanted to advise that operations at Growthdeck are continuing as normal with minimal disruption.

The wellbeing of our employees, shareholders, members and their families is paramount and we are taking steps to ensure they remain safe and healthy.

We have in place robust contingency plans to continue to provide our services, and indeed we have for a number of years operated agile working practices. All Growthdeck staff are able to work remotely and our systems and IT infrastructure have been set up to facilitate that, and we anticipate that we will be able to continue to operate business as usual to ensure our client services and project delivery are not impacted.

We have instigated a work-from-home policy. We will continue to conduct meetings, and will aim to do this, respecting the social distancing request made by the Government, via collaboration software, video conferencing or telephone conference. Our investee companies will present their deals via an online platform. This will allow you to review their presentations online, virtually meet the management teams and ask questions during the Q&A sessions.

While COVID-19 presents an unprecedented challenge to the country and the economy, we are well prepared and able to continue providing our services to our usual high standards. If there are any changes to our approach we will issue a new statement.

We wish our entire community continued good health at this difficult time. Stay safe.”
