"For most of my life, I’ve been obsessed with understanding what makes people perform at their best. Elite athletes have long understood the value of testing, tracking and continually adapting. But that approach shouldn’t be reserved for people competing at the highest level."

"We are thrilled to be supported by such a strong group of investors with varied and complementary experience. Women’s health rarely gets the investment it needs or deserves; it was refreshing to see the investors understand the gap and opportunity. Oversubscribing on our first round across just 4 weeks of pitching is a testament to the plan we have in place. We are excited to get back to business and scale GLORIAH!"
The round was led by Breega to support delivery capacity and team growth.
"Clinical trials are built through a series of interconnected decisions about how a study should be designed and run. Today, much of the knowledge and precedent behind those decisions is scattered across previous trials, siloed teams, internal systems and separate documents. Cori brings that intelligence together into a living blueprint, so teams can make better-informed decisions before avoidable problems become delays, so the science never waits on the process,"
The capital will fund the ongoing development of the startup, which combines artificial intelligence matching with immersive virtual viewings.
"The VenueVerse is addressing a clear gap in a large, established market with a product that combines AI, immersive technology and deep sector insight. Stacey and Mark bring the first-hand experience, commercial understanding and determination we look for in founders. As greater choice reshapes the wedding landscape, we believe there is a compelling opportunity to improve how couples discover venues and how venues connect with the right customers."
