The financing round was led by Next47 with participation from Partech, pushing the company valuation to $100m.
Blink provides an enterprise application tailored for frontline workers to improve engagement and retention. The platform serves clients across transport, healthcare, and logistics sectors globally.
London-based Blink has secured a Series A financing round of £15m led by Next47, with continued backing from early investor Partech. The company has achieved a valuation of $100m following the transaction.
Blink will direct the proceeds toward accelerating its product roadmap, including deep industry integrations with HR platforms. The capital also supports international expansion efforts as the company scales its operations and relocates key executives to the United States.
The enterprise software startup currently serves tens of thousands of users across transport and healthcare organisations. The funding arrives amid acute labour shortages, positioning the platform as a key tool for staff retention.
From the founder
"This new investment fuels the scaling of Blink’s all-in-one employee retention platform in the midst of a global recruitment crisis. As labour shortages hit industries with historically high staff turnover, such as healthcare, it’s clear that wages aren’t the only factor driving employees away. Using Blink has become a competitive advantage in the battle for talent, with organizations using the app to attract and retain their frontline workforce."
Sean Nolan
Founder and CEO at Blink
Investor perspective
"We’ve been blown away by their customer feedback and results so far, especially the impact on employee retention. We look forward to partnering with the Blink team as they continue their expansion into the US market and beyond."
