ELITE is a platform designed to help private companies in the UK prepare and structure for their next stage of growth, including scale up and fund-raising with education, mentoring and access to a wide network of professionals.

With over 750 companies, advisors and investors from 26 countries in the scheme, ISG is the only Jersey business to have been selected and forms one of only 100 companies participating from the UK. 

ISG offer digital automated investment management solutions.

Symon Stickney, founder and CEO of ISG, said: “We are honoured to have been accepted into the LSE ELITE programme, it is recognition of the growth and achievement of ISG’s business model to date, including our mix of innovation, technology and people. Our vision is to become the global leader in digital automated investment management solutions and being part of the ELITE programme affords us the opportunity to learn from more established firms and to springboard our presence globally. We are on the runway to bigger and better things now, with a solid client base of B2B investment professional firms.  We are now starting to do more work with blue chip companies and I am excited to see what challenges the next year will bring.”

ISG joins household names such as ‘Mumsnet’ and ‘Nutmeg’ in the ELITE community who will benefit from a comprehensive training programme and access to the London Stock Exchange’s business and finance community. 

Umerah Akram, Head of ELITE UK said: “Elite is a unique, strong community of the best and most dynamic entrepreneurs, advisers, investors and business school academics from the UK, Europe and around the world. These companies drive innovation, employment and create opportunities for us all.”
