Fearless Adventures has led a £300k investment round in WalkSafe to support user acquisition and digital marketing.
"As a team at Fearless Adventures, we fundamentally believe in Emma’s vision for WalkSafe, that technology combined with police crime data can genuinely help save lives. The new tech already has national attention and we see this app becoming the leading personal safety service. Emma’s commitment and passion are infectious and made it a very easy investment decision for us. We’re excited to offer them access to high-quality talent and marketing expertise to really scale their business."
Mercia Asset Management and cybersecurity leaders backed the round to support expansion in the US and UK.
"A simplistic rules-based approach to bot management won’t cut it anymore. Security suites need to be supported by dedicated bot management solutions that can respond to new threats and take advantage of new threat intelligence. Netacea’s agentless approach is the right one."
Flint Capital led the seed round as Cynomi prepares to scale its research and development operations.
"Billions of dollars are invested to secure enterprises, while SMBs are left behind. The small and mid-market companies are substantially less equipped to deal with the ever-growing threat landscape – lacking the budget and staff, they are more prone to the devastating impacts of possible attacks. We emulate a human CISO, automatically providing IT and cybersecurity teams with a focused assessment and a prioritized remediation action plan,"
KPN Ventures joins the Series C round to back international expansion and appoint a board director.
"Telcos are in prime position to connect and defend organisations. KPN, in particular, has a strong focus on security for its networks and services, making KPN Ventures a perfect partner for our future growth. We have ambitious growth plans for Benelux and the DACH region, and this partnership bolsters our ability to execute."
The financing was led by Zetta Venture Partners alongside Amadeus Capital Partners and Speedinvest to fund international growth and product development.
