"For such an early stage business, Eva and the Bewica team were extremely well-organised and ready for investment. With the drastic increase in virtual working and business conducted online, cyber fitness is a major and growing concern for SMEs, so the timing felt right. Also, Bewica was developed in partnership with customers such as banks and insurance providers as a direct response to the growing threat of cyber crime for their own clients, so the product-market fit was another strong reason to invest. We’re excited to see what the future holds for Bewica and happy to be counted among their early supporters."
