London Business Angels and London Co-Investment Fund back on demand parking service Vallie.
"London is one of the most difficult and expensive places to park in the world. Our customers love Vallie and the services we provide. It’s not just parking, it’s about improving the entire car owner experience and make driving into London work for both the driver and the city. Vallie’s model can work well in almost any city across the world. This round allows Vallie to deliver on that potential immediately"
YFM Equity Partners and Maven Capital Partners back the management buyout with a £12m funding package.
"The telecoms infrastructure market is experiencing sustained growth and our business is ideally positioned to grasp the opportunity for expansion as increasing client demand continues to reflect the need for access to reliable, high capacity networks. With the backing of Maven and YFM, allied to our existing client support infrastructure, we look forward to capitalising on the opportunity to gain additional market share, and pursuing a strategic acquisition programme."
The funding round was led by BGF Ventures to support sales expansion and product development.
"When I worked in the NHS I saw how much money was wasted on hiring locums from expensive recruitment agencies. Network Locums’s software can help hospitals and GP practices dramatically cut their spending on recruitment, as well as making sure that the best and most caring doctors are the first to be offered shifts."
Northstar Ventures and an angel investor back the charity cashback platform with £600k.
"The capital of Northstar’s investment will be deployed to raise awareness of the platform and to ensure that the product continues to be an incredibly simple and frictionless process for all users. We also have some exciting products in the pipeline to help the business community and event challengers (such as marathon runners) to raise money. We’re currently on the lookout for new hires to fill roles in marketing, web development and community management. GoRaise will also be rolled out in the USA, Australia, France and Germany."
YFM Equity Partners backs Hertfordshire-based communications platform Sipsynergy with a £2.8m investment.
"The shift to the cloud is accelerating, providing smaller businesses with an opportunity to access technologies and services previously only available to large corporates. Sipsynergy has created a great cloud-hosted solution for SMEs and evolved a partnership with Cisco which provides a clear route to market."
