Origin Capital backs battery developer Echion Technologies in a follow-on investment round.
The funding round was led by TrueSight Ventures alongside notable angel backers to expand team size and regional reach.
"We’ve developed a service in the last 2 months that is available to provide coronavirus disinfection. Our original goal for the business remains to help the planet – originally focussing on the eco-friendly nature of our tech compared to traditional laundry options. However, in recent weeks it’s become apparent that our help is needed in keeping people safe. In light of the current coronavirus situation, we are working closely with NHS and vulnerable groups to provide support when needed as well as doubling down on our software development, including our app, and rolling out the service to London later this year while continuing to focus on our original locations – Oxford and Cambridge."
The seed round was led by Caygan Capital founder Naruhisa Nakagawa to support platform expansion.
"As a young and disruptive startup, we are thrilled to have garnered support from a strong network of energy and technology investors who recognize Zeigo’s early achievements and our future business strategy."
The financing round was led by Foresight Williams Technology to support product rollout and grid balancing services.
"This round comes at an exciting time in markets across the UK, Western Europe and North America. With recent pledges to transition from natural gas in new build properties by 2025 across Europe along with unprecedented volatility in the UK’s electricity balancing market, Mixergy is well positioned to accelerate the low carbon transition through relationships with low cost manufacturing supply chains that cater to a global market."
The financing round was supported by Equity Gap, Scottish Investment Bank, Old College Capital and Hillhouse Group.

Through the application of biotechnology, MiAlgae is finding solutions to feed the world’s population, and with the global aquaculture industry set to double in size in the next ten years, this is a very promising business indeed."
