Connectd raises £1.2m in seed funding from angel investors to expand in Europe
The growth network secured backing from a syndicate of angel investors and corporate executives to fund international expansion.
Connectd is a platform that connects startups and scaleups with experienced fractional executives and strategic advisors. The company uses AI-driven tools to match businesses with senior talent across the UK and US.
Connectd has secured £1.2m in seed funding to support its European expansion and launch two new platform tools. The round attracted backing from several prominent angel investors and executives.
The capital will enable the company to scale operations into new markets, including the establishment of an office in Stockholm. Founded in 2020, the platform currently brings together thousands of participants across multiple countries.
The fresh injection of capital brings the company's total seed funding to $3m. Management plans to utilise the funds to roll out dedicated legal and portfolio management utilities for its user base.
