Namier Capital Partners

What Namier Capital Partners does

Namier Capital Partners Limited is a London-based FCA-authorised merchant bank (FCA reference 977303, company number 10889069) founded in 2017 that integrates principal investing, asset management and corporate finance advisory. The firm targets innovative Series A+ technology companies with strong IP and proven management, deploying its own capital primarily in industrial transition (decarbonisation, digitisation, modernisation of industrial systems) and healthcare (medical devices, digital health, biopharma), with adjacent exposure to music and digital media, fintech, real estate and litigation finance.

The firm operates a senior-led, relationship-driven model: 1-10 employees including a co-founding CEO (Edward Chandler, ex-Chairman of Deutsche Bank global corporate finance) and co-founder Mark Beilby (23 years across Morgan Stanley, SG Warburg, Deutsche Bank and JP Morgan), supplemented by a network of senior advisers with backgrounds at Nokia, Royal Philips, TikTok, YouTube, PwC and Alfa Laval. The 12-company portfolio spans pH sensors (ANB Sensors), wireless charging for e-scooters (Bumblebee Power with Voi), live-music AI (Hearby/Area4 Labs), music royalties (CWORKS), subsea digital (FutureOn), and several medical-device plays (Enteral Access Technologies DoubleCHEK, Celex Oncology, CardioSight).

Revenue is generated from two streams: investment returns on principal capital deployed in portfolio companies, and advisory fees for M&A, divestitures, private capital raising, corporate strategy and capital-markets advice to public and private companies, institutional investors and family offices. Pricing is bespoke and negotiated per engagement, and no revenue, AUM or fund-size figures are disclosed. Distribution is direct and senior-led, supplemented by an online pitch portal, a webinar series and a newsletter that function as deal-sourcing and thought-leadership channels.
