Siguler Guff has provided £11.4m in private equity backing to help launch the AI-focused consultancy.
"Advice from traditional consultancies is never impartial. You don’t know if the guidance you’re being given is right for your business, or theirs. And they lack the skills and expertise to really understand the AI revolution – you’re effectively paying for their transformation while trying to navigate your own. Valliance will always be independent. Our team of experts has a single aim: to help businesses reduce time to AI value. We’re not here to sell licenses – we’re here to deliver solutions that work for business, and with the existing IT estate."
BGF and Tencent join existing shareholders to support the biotechnology company in advancing its drug development programmes.
"We are delighted to have significantly added to our Series A financing, which we see as a strong validation of both our technology and our progress to date. I would like to thank Tencent and BGF for their belief in our potential, as well as all our existing investors for their continued support."
The funding round was led by KKCG and included participation from Deutsche Bank and BNF Capital.
"In just five years, we have rewired the relationship between brands and their customers, offering a different way to pay that brings mass benefits to both consumers and merchants,"
The round was led by TriplePoint Ventures to accelerate hiring, product development, and bank integrations.
"FALKIN’s vision to make proactive safety universal has the potential to redefine digital trust. We’re proud to back the team as they work to embed digital safety at the heart of modern finance."
