"The search for the ideal home is no longer reliant on the preconceived notion of location being everything. People’s priorities have shifted to lifestyle needs and the market is not yet accounting for this. Thanks to our unique technology we are flipping the traditional property search process on its head: by considering our users’ budget, commute, and location requirements, we help our users uncover the homes and neighbourhoods that are going to be the right fit for their needs. We are focussed on using the benefits of AI technology and data to push our matchmaking capabilities even further, to help uncover the hidden data that renters and buyers care a lot about."

"Guru represents an exciting opportunity for our VCTs to invest in a trusted supplier of carbon saving IoT technology. As a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, residential heating presents one of the greatest challenges in global and UK efforts to achieve net-zero emission. Heat networks have a major role to play but, like standalone domestic boilers, they can be hampered by inefficiency. This makes Guru’s sophisticated monitoring and AI-driven analytics technology very attractive to developers and operators as they strive to build efficient and cost-effective heating systems. We look forward to supporting the Guru team and helping them fulfil their growth aspirations."

"Changes to the way we work, shifting expectations of candidates, and the sheer pace of recruiting demands, have led organizations to rethink how they approach recruitment and retention. Enterprise talent teams are driving significant global transformation as they build towards this new future of work, and this investment will enable us to scale globally with growing demand and build the new category in enterprise technology."
