Lakeside North Harbour, Portsmouth’s leading workspace, has announced a new lettings agreement with Meon Capital, a fund management firm based in Portsmouth.
The company currently manages its flagship global equity fund, the IFSL Meon Adaptive Growth Fund and is preparing to expand its fund range with the introduction of new fund strategies with the addition of a dedicated US equity fund, together with a long/short absolute return global equity strategy.
The new office will play a crucial role in supporting the business to grow, providing the space and infrastructure needed for the company’s continued development.
Lakeside’s strong transport links further support the firm’s operations. Its proximity to the M27 motorway and easy access to the A3 offer direct road routes to London, while a train journey takes just over an hour.
This connectivity is especially valuable given that many of Meon Capital’s existing clients are based in the south of the UK. The company’s client base is growing nationally, with an increasing number of overseas clients.
Simon Bateman, Asset Manager at Lakeside North Harbour, said: “Lakeside is getting the attention of businesses in need of modern space to continue to deliver exceptional service and to have the room to focus on growth. Meon Capital’s move to the campus is a reflection of this.
“We help businesses shape the future of work. We are pleased to have Robert and his team at Lakeside on board and look forward to supporting them and the business as they continue to succeed”.
Robert Hale, Fund Manager and Director at Meon Capital, added: “Our move to Lakeside is a significant step forward. The new office elevates our professional image, supports growth, and serves as a well-connected hub.
“Lakeside gives us the environment to provide demonstrations of our unique systematic process led approach to managing equity portfolios, while providing the focus and space to drive our broader business strategy.
“We look forward to leveraging Lakeside’s facilities to expand our fund offerings and strengthen relationships with clients across the UK and overseas.”
