@ Abbasi000, there is no requirement that both team member should contribute 50% each of the investment funds, its left to both of you to decide how you contribute the funds. The most important issue is that both of you should have equal access to the fund. The caseworker cannot refuse your application base on this point.
The key to success is knowledge and hardwork, and to have faith.

I also agree to this point as proportion of money should not be an issue as their could be other reasons for this e.g the partner with less capital may have more business skills etc or less share of partnership.

Hi
Just a quick question. I thought you need to have access to £200k. Were you sponsored by your university for £50k?

You can apply 50k route only if you can show your business was established before 11th july 2014. There are separate criteria for this route.

Or you have to get fund through UKTI

I dont think he can apply with 50K as he hasmentioned that he is on student visa. He has to go back and apply with 200 K funding.
