You asked

I am trying to understand factors that have contributed to the success and failure of Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) and Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) investments.

To do this I wish to look at the cohort of companies that received these grants over a 10-year, 9 year, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 1 year basis.

I wish to obtain list of companies that received this tax status for each year from 2013 onwards. I need to know the company name, address, industry sector, how much was invested under the scheme, the turnover at the time of grant and their turnover now.
