Series B
£29.0M

The investment round was co-led by Lakestar and Dawn Capital with participation from Temasek and Goldman Sachs.

"When we founded Eigen five years ago, I wanted build a research-led transatlantic business. Since the Series A we have made great progress by massively scaling the company, expanding our client base, and integrating cutting-edge machine learning techniques into our NLP product. This new round will allow us to supercharge our growth. 80-90% of the enterprise data in the world today is unstructured information such as text, meaning that most organizations are unable to it unlock its value. With continuing economic uncertainty and the ongoing disruption by data-native companies such as Google, Tencent, and Amazon the imperative to be able to leverage this data is stronger than ever. The new funding will enable Eigen to further its core mission by unlocking the value of our clients’ qualitative data. This will be underpinned by another big investment in our science team, which will double in size so that we can continue to stay at the forefront of machine learning research."
— Lewis Liu, Co-founder and CEO
Seed
£6.7M

The Series A round was led by Notion Capital with participation from Dawn Capital and firstminute Capital.

"Ensuring there are Matrix apps out there which provide a credible alternative to Slack and WhatsApp will make it the natural successor to today’s instant messaging applications. New funding will allow New Vector to keep investing in Matrix products and services that will fuel growth of the network."
— Matthew Hodgson, CEO and Matrix Co-founder
Series B
£48.7M

The Series B round was co-led by Battery Ventures and Dawn Capital to accelerate international growth.

"I’m very proud of the team’s achievements over the past 12 months, but we have barely scratched the surface of the opportunity ahead of us. There are over 3 million businesses in our target markets, the UK and Italy, and over 5.5 million businesses in the next three largest markets in Europe. Most of these businesses are still using reimbursable expenses, spreadsheets and manual processes to manage the expense management cycle. The time saving and additional control over company spending and expense management that Soldo offers businesses of all sizes is a true game-changer, and we will continue to accelerate growth and consolidate our position as market leaders in the UK, Italy and Ireland over the next 12 months."
— Carlo Gualandri, CEO and Founder
