The investor behind Soho Farmhouse, Anya Hindmarch, Emilia Wickstead, The Conran Shop and many others is adamant that investors should support businesses, rather than strip them

I’m a very patient investor, and I don’t have an exit strategy. I would like to keep my businesses forever. That’s the ideal. He says..

Britain has an amazing pool of talent from all over the world. 

They love the British liberal values, they aspire to live here. 

What I can bring is patient capital, and offer back-office and financial help to support the businesses,” said Marandi, who has put his money behind a variety of companies and individuals including Nick Jones of Soho House and designer Anya Hindmarch.
