Our take

Finerva is a tech focused accounting business driven by the goal of helping make the UK the hub for the fastest growing businesses. It believes that this is only possible when entrepreneurs are supported by experienced business advisers offering finance, accounting, and tax services.

To do this, Finerva's platform combines rapidly-growing startups with its trusted & experienced network of specialist advisers and funders, helping entrepreneurs to scale and realise their full visions. It offers a complete and holistic range of financial services, all the way through from seed to exit.

Finerva has unique growth opportunities by working with start-ups. It sets itself apart from big, traditional accountancy firms which generally don't tend to provide the same level of support for tech and tech-enabled start-ups
