FutureBricks to launch Seedrs campaign using future fund
FutureBricks is set to launch a crowdfunding campaign on Seedrs, utilising the government’s future fund to boost the amount raised.
The peer-to-peer property lender said it is raising capital to fund the next stage of its growth strategy.
The future fund, delivered by the British Business Bank, offers convertible loans ranging from £125,000 to £5m from the government subject to at least equal match funding from private investors.

Firms raising money can therefore double the amount of funding they receive by using the scheme.
FutureBricks said that it will open for a private launch on Seedrs for existing investors before the campaign goes public.
