"Safer Date is something that I am so passionate about. My own personal experience opened my eyes to just how unsafe dating apps really are. Previously, I naively thought that they had to vet their users – I was wrong. Most dating apps are full of fake profiles and criminals, including sex offenders."
— Elaine Parker, Founder and CEO
£500K

The funding will support the installation of 25 dispensing units in central London and technology development.

"It has been a great pleasure to pitch to Henley Business Angels and be connected with angel investors that see the potential in backing a mission focused business like ape2o. We look forward to showing consumers across the UK that they now have a more affordable and sustainable alternative to getting pure water on the go, without the use of plastic bottles."
— Anthony Newman, Founder and CEO
Seed
£8.3M

The seed round was led by Octopus Ventures and GV, with participation from Speedinvest and angel investors.

"Lapse doesn’t let you review, edit, or curate photos in ways that other platforms encourage. The focus is on enjoying the moment, rather than trying to showcase it. People are taking and sharing photos on Lapse of things they never would have otherwise. By removing the pressure for perfection and the mental barrier when we review photos, a whole new world of more ‘real’ photos gets unlocked,"
— Ben Silvertown, Co-Founder
Pre-Seed
£150K

Jenson Funding Partners led the pre-seed investment round to help fund product development and expansion.

"When I first became a mother, I discovered parent tech wasn’t adapted to my needs. When I became a mum for the second time, I decided to apply my skills to develop a solution to help parents like me; those with a busy schedule who want to support their child’s development every day. As such, parents will also have access to the necessary information should they need to share it with a midwife or other health or childcare professionals."
— Margaret Zablocka, Founder and CEO
