The remote work platform has landed fresh funding and appointed three new board members to scale its operations.
"With Alison guiding our international rollout, Scott shaping our tech strategy, and Daniel bringing a proven track record in tech innovation, strategic development, and digital transformation, SWURF is positioned to grow with purpose and precision. Their leadership is a game-changer as we take SWURF to new markets and new heights."
"We’re excited to have Oxford Innovation Finance join our investor group at such a pivotal moment. Their experience in supporting transformative early-stage companies aligns closely with our long-term strategy as we continue to grow our platform and reach more movers across the UK. This funding enables us to accelerate development across our five core verticals, deepen integration with key industry partners and expand our national footprint. Our goal is not only to simplify the home moving process but to build the market-leading platform in proptech that becomes the default destination for anyone planning a move in the UK."
The financing round was backed by a consortium of private investors and values the business at £35m.
"We are delighted to welcome these luminaries to our board. We have spent the past year refining our business model, technology and approach. It is a testament to the power and potential of our technology that we have attracted such high-calibre people to the board, and that our first fundraising round was oversubscribed, closing in record time."
Fuel Ventures led the pre-seed round to help accelerate growth and expand partnerships for the housing platform.
"We’re building tools that will transform how we plan for housing. Policymakers know the numbers. The challenge is understanding what homes can go where. With this funding, we’re scaling our platform to give planners, developers, and local leaders the clarity they need to make housing delivery actually happen."
The oversubscribed round will support the AEC start-up as it rolls out its MVP for real estate investors.
"We are proud to welcome BTC d.d., Avto Krka, and Imari Holdings Ltd, as partners who believe in our bold vision (to become the most efficient platform for real estate investors) and have committed to bring strategic value to LynxCraft far beyond capital."
