The funding comes from Mercia Ventures to back the launch of the North East technology platform.
"For two decades, the digital economy has been built on data that consumers generate but never benefit from. Surff exists to change that. We’re building the infrastructure layer for decision data – the missing signal that brands have lost as cookies disappear and agentic commerce replaces the buying journey. Consumers get to own and earn from the data they create. Brands get a clearer picture of how decisions actually happen. I’m especially proud to be building this in the North East, where the talent and ambition are world-class."
The round was led by NPIF II - PXN Equity Finance with participation from Salica, NYDIG and angel investors.
"Businesses are under pressure to adopt AI, but many are finding that the real challenge isn’t accessing the technology but actually deploying it safely and effectively. We’re helping traditional B2B services evolve into AI-native businesses by embedding agents into their core workflows. This removes friction, giving teams a single platform to build, deploy and govern intelligent tools without needing to rebuild their infrastructure or hire specialist developers."
The pre-Series A round was led by VERBUND X Ventures with backing from Octopus Ventures, Armajaro Holdings, and Green Angel Ventures.
"Efficient use of cloud and AI is possible when the right culture and tooling is embraced. With Greenpixie’s high fidelity sustainability data enterprises can maximise the full potential of their intelligence. This funding will enable us to accelerate our mission and continue our global reach in these pivotal times."
The oversubscribed funding round was led by SFC Capital to support clinical expansion and regulatory progress for the firm's memory testing platform.
"Many new therapies for Alzheimer’s disease and related conditions are designed to work at the earliest stages of the disease process. However, most existing cognitive tests detect impairment only once irreversible damage has already occurred. Our test shifts the detection window years earlier, providing a far more sensitive way of identifying subtle changes in memory."
The funding round includes £1.5m from Fuel Ventures and a £1.5m Innovate UK loan, supporting product development and commercial scaling.
"Producers and users of indices have been limited for too long by outdated systems. PANTA digitalises the entire value chain, helping clients innovate faster, operate more efficiently and deliver greater value to investors."
