Hi Tom, it's Anthony from SeedLegals here, author of that article.

Actually I've seen nothing to suggest that valuations have changed since our article. If you're seeing differently, all feedback welcome.

I should add that I always have a lingering concern that so many people reference that article - both founders and investors - that in some ways it's moved from reflecting market to making market... which means the bar to making sure it's accurate is high.

I have made 43 angel investments in the last 6 months, 90% at seed and pre-seed. 75% in the UK.

The lowest valuation I've paid was £3m, and this happened exactly once.

My mean valuation for seed is around £8-10m.

It tops out at around £20m.

Perhaps my sample is skewed. Not many of the companies I'm investing in use SeedLegals. Investors often insist they use actual lawyers.
