Recognise your place in that list?

Three tiers: £5,000, £15,000 or £35,000, all excluding VAT. What changes between them is how much bespoke work we do on your proposition and how early your place reaches investors — the £35,000 Founding Partner tier is the only one profiled in person in Latin America ahead of the delegation, and it is capped at four places.

The £5,000 tier exists because we recognise that public budgets are tight. If you join at that tier and want to go further later, we will credit what you've paid against the higher tier.

Everything can be phased across two financial years. If none of it fits your budget position, tell us and we'll say so plainly rather than string out a process.

Engagement from your investment team, a pipeline of opportunities worth presenting, and a willingness to host investors when they visit. We do the heavy lifting on investor relationships, packaging and convening.

In exchange Founding Partners get:

• Prime promotion to Latin American investors — your place profiled to hundreds of investors through in-country seminars, co-curated webinars and Acacias' bilingual investor platform.

• Priority engagement with the UKREiiF 2027 delegation — structured meetings in Leeds, plus an optional site visit to your place before or after.

• Training on the Latin American market — how this capital is structured, how it decides, and the cultural fluency to work with it.

• Expert support throughout, and alumni network membership — hands-on help through the programme, and continued access to the network afterwards.

Associate and Partner places receive a subset of this — the training, the platform listing and delegation access, without the in-country profiling. The pricing section above sets out which is which.

Latin American family offices and high-net-worth individuals, sourced through Acacias Capital's network across Chile, Colombia and Mexico. Acacias is in active dialogue with more than twenty, and promoting to considerably more through the autumn.

Three things about them that matter for how you'd work with them:

They are experienced developers, but not here. Many have built and held property in other markets — Spain is a common route — so they understand development risk, planning systems and long holds. What they don't have is a UK track record, and most are new to this market entirely. A minority hold modest UK assets already.

That inexperience makes them cautious, and the caution is the reason this programme exists. They will move slowly, want to meet people rather than read documents, and need a trusted intermediary before they'll look seriously. If this capital were confident and well-connected here, it would already be here — and you wouldn't need us.

They deploy patiently, in an asset class they already understand: real estate, regeneration, clean energy and place-based assets.

Founding Partners receive a capability document on the investor cohort — track record, what they've built and backed, and how they make decisions — so you can benchmark them before you spend political capital on a visit.

We're recruiting the investor cohort in parallel with the UK places, because each makes the other credible — investors want to see committed UK places, places want to see committed investors.

The full cohort firms up through the programme, ahead of the delegation arriving in May 2027.

Founding Partners are buying first-mover position and preparation — not a guaranteed name list on day one.

Real estate and the hard fabric of place: homes, the built environment of innovation districts, lab and grow-on space, infrastructure and energy. We build investor confidence in your whole proposition, then channel capital into the discrete assets within it. This funds the physical growth of an innovation place, rather than research or venture risk.

We are building this with UK and in-country partners, including access to embassy networks for convening. We will be clear with founding partners about exactly what backing is in place at each stage.

We're honest that no one can promise you a cheque. What we can set out is the chain we're building towards, and where we take responsibility:

Conversations → qualified leads → site visits with your place team → schemes that progress into planning and development.

We own the first three links: putting your place in front of the right investors, qualifying who's serious, and getting them to your door. The fourth is yours, but it's the one that's impossible to reach if the first three never happen.

It's a well-worn route. Investors who join a curated place tour and build a relationship over years go on to become that place's largest delivery partners in their sector. That pattern is what we're engineering, deliberately, from a standing start.

Along the way you get artefacts you can use internally: investor profiles, a record of engagement, and follow-up notes you can file and share with your chief executive and members.
