The Edinburgh laser manufacturer has closed a £1.2m round backed by Kelvin Capital, EOS, Scottish Enterprise, and ESM Investments.
"This new funding will enable us to expand our team and accelerate Chromacity’s growth, both commercially and technologically. We are seeing significant traction with major industrial companies in China and Japan, who are very interested in the high average power and broad wavelength coverage of our systems, and it’s important we are funded to accelerate growth and capitalise on these opportunities."
The round was co-led by GWC alongside Maven Capital Partners, Scottish Enterprise, ESM Investments, and Galvanise Capital.
"Our next-gen solution for shoppable marketing provides a seamless experience not only for the end customer, but also for the marketer, and we see tremendous opportunity to expand our wide variety of solutions in rapidly maturing markets, such as the US, over the next year,"
The investment round was led by Archangels, with co-investment from Par Equity, Techstart Ventures, and ESM Investments.
"We are very pleased to have the continued support of our seed investors who have helped us shape and scale this revolutionary business from an idea to commercial launch ready. With this latest round of investment, we are scaling up commercialisation and production of Gii. We have now successfully launched our first product, Gii-Sens, into our beachhead market of Human Diagnostic Biosensors. Ultimately, this funding round will enable us to capitalise on being first to market world-wide with high performing, cost effective, application-specific 3D Graphene Foam, enabling better products."
