The equity and debt round was backed by Force Over Mass, PostFinance, 1818 Venture Capital, and Tribe Capital to fund increased lending volumes.
"Our ambition is for Outfund to be the place to go to grow your business, without compromising your equity or wasting time fundraising. This is why we have spent time developing a way to make the process of securing money for growth easier, fairer and, most importantly, faster. Our approach has been warmly received by the founders and directors so far, and now we’re looking at how we can open this up to more businesses and continue to be part of their journey to success for a long time."
The Series A round was led by Hoxton Ventures with backing from notable tech entrepreneurs.
"My story – and Juno’s raison d’etre – will sound all-too-familiar to many. When I started my career as a Growth Manager for startups, long hours and ‘hustle culture’ left me feeling burnt out. The loss of a family member finally broke me and the thing I needed the most at that time was genuine wellbeing support in place of the alcohol-fuelled socials and awkward team yoga I was offered by HR. But I should have known not to expect too much from superficial ‘perks’ systems that fail to consider peoples’ actual needs."
West Hill Capital backed the Series A round to support product development and market expansion.
"To see the technological empowerment we’re providing to Care Services across the country, is the reason we’re so happy to be working alongside West Hill Capital. To provide this solution to every Care Service desperately in need of staff through this crisis is a true honour, and one we look forward to tackling."
Beringea led the Series A round to support team expansion and US operations.
"CGHero sits at the intersection of two fundamental trends shaping the global economy: the rise of the metaverse and the future of work. As we see the widespread adoption of AR and VR, demand for 3D content – and the specialist talent required to develop it – will increase dramatically."
The investment was led by AV8 Ventures with participation from several European funds to advance workplace safety technology.
"Today marks an important milestone for Soter Analytics and our mission to empower organisations to make their workplace safer. Our bespoke technology provides an end-to-end safety solution through AI and machine learning, and this fundraise shows that our investors and partners have recognised the strength of our product. This fresh capital will allow us to invest in research and development and work alongside organisations to help them improve workplace safety, decrease employee turnover, and enable injured workers return to work faster"
