Series C
£26.7M

Morgan Stanley Expansion Capital led the Series C round, which will fund international expansion and product development.

"Despite one of the toughest fundraising environments for tech companies in the recent past, this funding round was significantly oversubscribed. Vortexa has doubled its valuation since its Series B funding round in 2021 and, having grown three times faster than the median SaaS business over the last year, is near profitability with an immense untapped market opportunity ahead. It is truly a privilege to partner with Morgan Stanley Expansion Capital. We have been extremely impressed with the caliber of the team, who saw past the complexity of the industries Vortexa serves and recognized our unique opportunity to create value and impact globally. I am excited to work with the Expansion Capital team to build the future of the company."

Communitas Capital has taken a stake in Vortexa, bringing expertise from senior financial industry figures.

"The traditional financial information networks were primarily based on the aggregation and distribution of market data. Vortexa is the first information platform of its kind using advanced AI to create a real-time fundamental view of the multi-trillion-dollar energy market. The speed in which Vortexa is attracting and working with the top energy traders in the market is a clear indication of something immensely valuable in the making."
