Cornerstone Partners is an angel network focused on supporting black and diverse founding teams across the UK with investments between £25k and £100k.
The round was backed by Cornerstone Partners, Google, Backed VC, Impact X, and angel investors.
"From our first encounter, Cornerstone clearly understood the problem we’re solving and were already aware of our brand, which made a difference. We respect their commitment to our community and their focus on creating positive legacy."
Cornerstone Partners has led a seed investment into fitness platform Boxx to expand content and staff.
"At Boxx, accessibility is one of the core values that underpin our brand. From the initial conversation with Cornerstone, not only did they understand our vision but their commitment to back underrepresented founders and their shared values was something that really stood out for us. In addition to Cornerstone, we have a number of other angels participating in this round, who bring value in a multiple of ways. Together we believe this will help us deliver on our mission to create a connected fitness product that makes boxing inspired fitness accessible to all. We are extremely excited to see what the future holds."
The proptech start up has raised £545k to digitise the property letting and purchasing process.
"Inefficiencies in the application process provide a real opportunity to innovate and digitise customer onboarding practices. James, who showed some real promise during our scale-up programme, is well placed to embed these changing behaviours for property transactions. We look forward to supporting the business as they grow and working in partnership with SFC Capital, and angel investors Samantha and Richard"
The online underwear brand raised the capital from Cornerstone Partners and angel investors to expand its team and scale operations.
"Supporting Nudea’s female founders on their entrepreneurship journey is for us a highlight. Their industry expertise and vision for the future of the online underwear space is really inspiring. I’m excited to see them build out their team, sustain and scale the brand’s remarkable year-one success and make further impact in terms of accessibility in self-fitting."
Cornerstone Partners has led a pre-seed investment into Hutch Logistics alongside angel investor Andy Davis.
"Cornerstone are delighted to be working with Sait and the rest of the team to support Hutch’s growth plans. Their innovative tech platform and micro warehousing concept is compelling and represents a unique opportunity to serve the rapidly developing independent eCommerce sector. We look forward to supporting the business over the coming years and working with Andy and the other angel investors who participated in this round."
