Triple Point Ventures led the oversubscribed seed round to support growth in product development and go-to-market operations.
"For decades, SME contractors have been penalised by a lack of price transparency and inefficient ordering, often paying a premium simply because they lack the time and purchasing power of the Tier-1 giants,"
Hedosophia led the seed round with participation from Visionaries Club and Anamcara to support expansion into new territories.
"Brands today face intense pressure to meet rapid shifts in consumer trends while delivering on expectations for fast, low-cost, and sustainable supply chains. Many of the biggest names in fashion still manage their supply chain data on Excel and communicate with suppliers via email or WhatsApp. We want to transform customers’ operations while meeting them where they are today. With Ameba, we’re turning supply chains from bottlenecks into engines of growth."
The seed round was led by AlbionVC and will support international expansion alongside new product features.
"Rory, Nick, and Andrew have built one of the most exciting B2B platforms we have seen recently. Trumpet is elegantly designed and extremely easy to use and it’s already proving its effectiveness with global teams. There is so much potential for Pods to not only own the conversations between buyers and sellers but also other areas of B2B communications and I’m looking forward to working with the team as they expand and grow."
The funding round was led by AlbionVC with participation from Lightbird Ventures, Anamcara Capital and Triple Point Ventures.
"Companies are continuing to tighten their belts because of the economic climate and that means sales teams need to change how they fundamentally approach selling. We’re helping companies collaborate and centralise their buyer journey, increasing their sales efficiency and velocity. Our proprietary revenue intelligence signals are also helping revenue leaders forecast and understand their deal pipeline like never before. The new trend of buyer enablement is happening and we’re at the forefront of it. We’re delighted to be working with Paul and the team at Albion to support us as we expand to the US and integrate AI into the platform so we can continue to serve buyers and sellers."
Lightbird Ventures led the pre-seed round, which will fund team expansion as the company addresses strong demand from enterprise clients.
"We’re very excited to announce this new funding as we embark on the next stage of our growth journey. Having personally experienced the pains of designing and personalising countless sales assets and navigating complex buyer journeys throughout my career, I’m confident trumpet is the answer to these industry-wide problems. The platform provides salespeople with a no-code solution to create live, centralised and personalised microsites which can be used across the entire sales cycle. This seamless experience speeds up, and optimises buyer journeys whilst reducing the growing amount of admin salespeople are faced with. Covid-19 accelerated digital transformation like never before and we are well-positioned to provide the perfect tool to help stimulate a digital shift in B2B sales and the initial data coming out of the Beta is extremely exciting."
