The latest funding rounds from the UK tech ecosystem. Updated 31 July 2026.

Pre-Seed
£746K

Anthemis led the pre-seed round with backing from Chris Adelsbach.

"We are delighted to welcome Anthemis, BBVA and Chris to Cledara. Anthemis has been a fintech pioneer from the very beginning, and their experience, combined with BBVA’s expertise, resources and reach will massively accelerate Cledara’s growth."
— Cristina Vila, Founder and CEO
Pre-Seed
£1.0M

The fintech startup raised the capital from high-profile angel and institutional investors to expand its specialist team and deliver its platform.

"We are delighted to have raised this preliminary capital through the support of individual investors who saw value in what we were creating but can also bring expertise gained across relevant sectors such as loyalty, technology, travel and banking. It’s rare to reach this stage based purely on smaller investors however, having successfully established ourselves in 2018 we look forward to launching our next funding round – and engaging with a broad pool of supporters across investment, legal VC and more – later this quarter, which will take us to our next capital milestone and closer to our launch to market in early Q2."
— Craig Unsworth, Group CEO
Pre-Seed
£30.0M

The pre-seed investment was led by DMG Ventures with participation from Stride Capital, Octopus Ventures and Entree Capital to fund team expansion and operational growth.

"I’m delighted to announce this investment in my latest venture, Cazoo, and am very excited by the opportunity to transform the used car buying experience, which suffers from poor satisfaction and convenience and is failing to meet the needs of consumers. Buying a car should be no different to buying any other product online today."
— Alex Chesterman, Founder
