The seed round was co-led by Oxford Capital and YZR to fund expansion into international markets.
"Increasing access to the right diagnostic imaging and testing is vital to saving lives. It offers preventive healthcare that, if delayed, can cause significant problems to the patient and put even greater pressure on the healthcare system. In my role as an osteopath I've seen how the deterioration of patient wellbeing can be impacted by the cost and access of such tests. With this new investment we can continue to grow our network to get the tests that help to direct patients to the optimal therapy for the best outcome."
— Jasper Nissim, Co-Founder and UK Managing Director
The green-tech startup secured the capital from a public crowdfunder and five angel investors.
"Our goal was to build a wide network of shareholders who care about our purpose as much as we do and can be true ambassadors for the brand, which is why we capped the investment level at £5,000 per person."
The seed round was led by Metaventures and Jean-Charles Capelli to fund metaverse expansion.
"Dubit is in the perfect position to take advantage of the new opportunities in the metaverse. No other company has 20 years experience in developing and launching virtual worlds, combined with a great network of brands and organisations that it works with around the world. As an entrepreneur and musician, I’m proud to invest in Dubit, and I’m excited to help scale up the incredible experiences it creates for users of Roblox and other metaverses."
The Manchester-based car rental platform secured £534k from DSW Ventures and angel investor Harry Dixon to fund European expansion and team growth.
"The online car rental market is ripe for disruption. Stressfreecarrental.com offers a fresh approach and we believe it is well-placed to achieve significant scale. The business has already gained considerable traction, despite restrictions on travel, and this round will support its further development and growth."
