Maven Capital Partners led the multi-million investment to support product development and international growth.
"Kani has developed an innovative, award-winning platform that is addressing a critical challenge in the fast evolving payments industry. The company’s proprietary technology, coupled with the team’s deep sector expertise, has helped the business achieve year on year growth with annual recurring revenues sharply increasing in the last year, driven by a 70% increase in clients. With the increasing complexity of payment reconciliation and regulatory compliance, demand for Kani’s solution is set to grow further. We are excited to support Aaron and his team as they scale the business and expand into new global markets, particularly with significant opportunities emerging in the US."

"Every biotechnology or pharmaceutical company wants to be at the forefront of technology to find the best therapeutic molecules, yet not all are in a position to develop the most advanced AI models for the job. That’s where Latent Labs comes in. We push the frontiers of generative biology, giving our partners instant access to tools that accelerate their drug design programs."
The Series A round was backed by Mercia Ventures, Pearson, and Fuel Ventures to support artificial intelligence development and go to market expansion.
"Funding will be allocated to product innovation, leading the use of AI in connecting learning to the skills people need and the results businesses care about. Also, scaling our GTM and new market."
Battery Ventures led the Series A round to support platform development and US expansion.
"Support is no longer just about closing tickets – it’s about building long-term relationships. The migration to collaborative, real-time channels is changing the way businesses interact with customers. Plain is the platform designed for this new reality, helping companies deliver support that’s fast, effective, and aligned with their customers’ needs."
The London-based deeptech company raised the Series A round to expand into the US market and further develop its hardware and software platform.
"The IONATE team builds extraordinary tech with extraordinary timing. Just as national networks, industrial players and data centers realised how much of their progress depended on modernising their electrical infrastructure, we are ready to help them do exactly that. Resiliency, flexibility, and efficiency are key for our energy systems, and IONATE is uniquely positioned to strengthen all three. We are so excited to have some of the strongest VCs and strategic partners in our corner to realise this impact and begin transforming power globally."
