Luxury Development Edition Birmingham Secures £127.5 Million Backing From Eldridge
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Court Collaboration and Select Property, the strategic partners behind Edition Birmingham, one of the city's most prestigious residential developments, have today announced a £127.5 million loan from Eldridge Real Estate Credit, the real estate investing strategy of Eldridge Capital Management. The loan from Eldridge Real Estate Credit follows existing funding for the project provided by PGIM to Court Collaboration. Funding will support the construction of the flagship 581-apartment scheme in the heart of Birmingham. The new debt facility provided by Eldridge Real Estate Credit is one of the largest fundings announced this year for a residential development outside London. Edition Birmingham, which is being sold and marketed by Select Property, is located off Centenary Square, close to the Library of Birmingham and the £1.2 billion Paradise scheme. It is a short walk away from Colmore Row, the heart of the city's business district. The development's one- and two-bed apartments are split between two connected towers of 46 storeys and 15 storeys. Midgard has been selected as the contractor on the development, which has already secured over £87 million in revenue through off-plan sales. Phase one is expected to be completed by 2027. Edition's residents will have access to an unmatched range of wellness-led amenities and benefits. Alongside cutting-edge gym and spa facilities, residents will enjoy a 20-metre above-ground swimming pool with an accompanying hydro pool, plunge pool, sauna and steam room. Residents will also be able to relax at a sky lounge complete with private dining experiences on the 44 th and 45 th floors. The development also includes a premium co-working lounge, called The Study, and outdoor co-working space on a 14 th -floor garden terrace. Other outdoor amenities include a 9,000 sq ft podium terrace with a cinema screen and a BBQ area that connects the two buildings. Eldridge Real Estate Credit invests in real estate credit opportunities throughout the US, UK and Europe, including construction, transitional, and special situation opportunities across the capital structure. The platform has originated over $10 billion in loans, leveraging an experienced team with a disciplined approach seeking to create long-term value. PGIM Real Estate, the real estate business of PGIM, one of the largest investment firms in the world, is also a financial partner to Edition Birmingham via its PRECap series, its flagship European high-yield debt strategy. Alex Neale, CEO of Court Collaboration, said: 'This funding package from Eldridge, combined with our ongoing support and relationship with PGIM, is an endorsement of the quality of Edition. Our partners recognise that the development brings luxury living to the heart of Birmingham as the city centre benefits from over £1bn of investment over the coming years. With breaking ground expected soon and completion of phase one in 2027, there's real momentum and excitement building around Edition and what it will bring to Birmingham.' Adam Price, CEO of Select Property, said: 'I'm really pleased that our partners at Eldridge believe in the inherent investment opportunity Edition provides. Birmingham is on the rise, with significant investment in the city centre and a young and growing population that wants high-quality living in the heart of town. We've seen strong appetite from owner-occupiers and investors alike; something reflected in the large number of off-plan sales. All this underlines the prestige of Edition and the fact there is nothing else like it in Birmingham.' John Cole, Global Head of Real Estate Credit at Eldridge Capital Management, added: 'The teams at Court Collaboration and Select Property have consistently demonstrated their ability to deliver and market high-quality, competitive residential offerings.

EU Is Racing to Secure US Trade Deal and Preparing for the Worst
European Union and US negotiators are heading into another week of intensive talks, as they seek to clinch a trade deal by Aug. 1, when US President Donald Trump has threatened to hit most EU exports with 30% tariffs. Officials in Brussels are prepared to stomach an unbalanced agreement that favors the US if that's what is required to break the impasse before the deadline. But the two sides have yet to yield a decisive breakthrough despite an earlier round of negotiations in Washington last week, according to people familiar with the matter.

VCs use this 'power law' to decide whether to invest in startups: We want 'outsized-outcome potential'
As pitches from founders come flooding in, one investor has revealed how VCs use a historic "law" to identify the best investments. "The power law in venture capital basically means that a small number of investments generate the vast majority of returns. So essentially, one or two massive winners outweigh all other investments combined," Peter Specht, general partner at European VC firm Creandum, told CNBC Make It in an interview. He described it as "significant in decision-making for VCs." The power law originates from the work of late-19th-century Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto. He noticed that 20% of the pea pods in his garden produced 80% of the peas, and applied this observation to economic conditions and wealth disparity. Specht explained that, as VCs often finance ideas that are risky and innovative, they know that some of these startups will fail. But the returns from the companies that succeed can become "massive winners," which "outweigh all other losses or smaller exits," he said. "From a return perspective, you want to really hit the outliers. We want the Spotifys, the Revoluts, the Klarnas," he said. "Outcomes at that size, or that scale, return more capital to investors and founders than five, billion-dollar exits. A $50 billion exit is way bigger than five $1 billion exits." Although the route to securing venture capital in Europe is improving, there's still some way to go, according to Atomico's State of European Tech Report 2024. In fact, the average seed round — the first official round of fundraising — in Europe was $1.4 million last year, compared to $3 million in the U.S., Atomico found. It's even harder at the growth stage, with American startups twice as likely to raise funding rounds of more than $15 million. Some 60% of respondents told Atomico in 2024 that it was harder to raise external finance compared to the previous year. Specht said one key way to convince VCs that you're building the next Spotify or Revolut is to show that your company has "outsized-outcome potential." "You need to pitch why it can become so big, why it can become a category-defining company," he said. This includes explaining how you're tackling the market and how the product can expand over time. At the seed stage, having an early product or pilot users with positive feedback can help. If you don't have the product yet, there needs to be evidence that the product is filling a gap in the market and is offering a genuine solution to customers. VCs also look for "exceptionally strong and ambitious founders," Specht said, adding that he wants to understand their motivation and drive. "One thing we obviously ... like to see is if founders have a spike in a particular area, or a skill, and shown excellence in that," he said. This could be work-related, such as having technical or leadership capabilities, or even excelling in sports or studies. Given the gap between fundraising in Europe and the U.S., Harry Stebbings, the founder of 20VC, identified a difference in the way founders pitch. American founders tend to be more bold and ambitious, Stebbings said, compared to their counterparts across the Atlantic. "I don't think Europeans are as good fundraisers [as Americans]. We need to tell better stories. We need to market ourselves better. We are too self-deprecating," he told CNBC Make It. Some founders have even been "badly" advised to include "exit slides" in their pitches, Stebbings added. "That makes me feel sick, like I'm planning my divorce when I get married." While Specht disagrees that European founders lack ambition, he thinks that startups in the region could tell better stories. "We have people and founders that dream really big and want to build massive companies," he said. "In the general culture between Europe and the U.S., I think U.S. founders and Americans are pretty good in storytelling and also pretty good salespeople." "There, we can focus on being even more bold, having an even more refined and visionary storytelling," Specht added.
