"We’re delighted to support GrandCare at this stage in the company’s development, with a real addressable market and innovative system we look forward to working with the business as it expands its customer reach and invests in product development. Stella and the team are highly experienced in the sector and dedicated to driving the business forward, with an increasing demand for the company’s technology solution, the business is set to experience rapid growth in the coming years."
Twitter co-founder Biz Stone backed the pre-seed round alongside Tiny VC and IFG Ventures.
"Everybody has something they want to learn, and something they can teach. We’re bringing them together. Educators are superstars, and they bring so much value to the lives of students. But the best tutors are not always known. We’re building a world where an Arabic expert living in Egypt can create classes or share answers with students from around the world. The content that our tutors create on Scoodle lives on. This continues to benefit other students, long after the classes have ended. Tutors are content creators. They are constantly making amazing resources for students. They deserve to be recognised. Linkedin has created a professional identity. Facebook has created a social identity. Scoodle will create a teaching identity. One day, we’ll really make the Kim Kardashian’s of education."
Vickers Venture Partners led the Series A round to support clinical trials for set-point vaccines.
"Attracting such high calibre investors is an endorsement of our development pipeline and validation of the potential our technologies hold in the field of infectious diseases. These new funds will support us to achieve some significant value-enhancing milestones as we progress our lead vaccine candidates into clinical development."
The funding round was led by Longwall Venture Partners to support research and technology scaling.
"This investment gives us a platform to really accelerate in 2020 and scale-up the delivery of our game-changing technology to farmers across the country. We’re seeing rising demand from around the world for new technologies to help farmers grow crops in ways that mitigate against the effects of climate change and ever-increasing extreme weather events."
