Northern Gritstone leads Series A round into the Manchester-based manufacturing technology platform.
"Northern Gritstone is delighted to support Partful. This growing Manchester-based tech company has already won large OEM customers thanks to its technology and is set to create more jobs in its North of England team"
The investment was led by Par Equity with backing from Blumberg Capital to fund international expansion and product development.
"I haven’t seen anyone else offering this level of product in this particular section of the market for a long time. Partful saves the product team and the engineers a lot of work."
WestCap led the Series B round with participation from Citi, EJF Capital and Optiver PSI.
"We believe that lending your stocks, bonds and ETFs is a basic ownership right that should be made available to all. As private investor participation increases in capital markets, we are leveling the playing field so that private investors, through their brokers and banks, can benefit from income generating solutions that have been largely restricted to big financial institutions. We are humbled by this vote of confidence from such a strong group of investors. This partnership enables us to accelerate our global growth plans and scale, expand our offering faster and realize our vision of opening up securities lending to every investor worldwide."
The Manchester based technology start-up raised £3.8m in a seed round led by Par Equity to fund international expansion and product development.
"Having the support of Par Equity, Blumberg Capital and Sand Hill East is a powerful endorsement of SamsonVT which demonstrates belief in the company’s potential – we are thrilled to have their backing. There is a huge desire for smart technologies that help OEMs improve customer service, while also allowing them to operate more efficiently and in a more sustainable way. We can help them achieve these goals and this funding will enable us to provide our solutions to more organisations far sooner."
