The investment case for Imperial Innovations rests in the potential to unlock hidden value from within its portfolio of 95 companies, which span healthcare (therapeutic/medtech), engineering/materials and ICT/digital. Healthcare currently accounts for c 70% of the portfolio value (£252m at 31 July 2014), although Innovations’ management plans a rebalance to c 60% healthcare and c 40% technology (engineering/materials and ICT/digital). In this special report we highlight the potential within the technology portfolio, profiling seven companies that could add substantial value over the next few years, above their relatively modest carrying values.

Any idea why GBG is down 3.16%?

This company promise a lot but their share price doesnt move a great deal. Does anyone know why they are AIM listed when they seem to be largely based in the US. What if they delist?. Where does that leave small investors?. Sorry if the answers are obvious, but I`m relatively new to all of this

If energy prices are falling and demand is lower, will building more capacity make sense?
