LinkedInThe funding round was backed by investors including Ananda Impact Ventures and Brighteye Ventures to support the launch of a new entrepreneurial MBA.
"Following a successful fundraise of £8.25 million, we are hugely excited to launch our new MBA programme, which is just the first step in creating a broader education system around entrepreneurship."
The seed round was co-led by BrightEye and Outward to support team expansion and product innovation.
"Following the 2008 financial crisis, a huge part of our economic recovery was down to individuals taking a risk, being entrepreneurial and starting new ventures."
Flint Capital led the seed round as Cynomi prepares to scale its research and development operations.
"Billions of dollars are invested to secure enterprises, while SMBs are left behind. The small and mid-market companies are substantially less equipped to deal with the ever-growing threat landscape – lacking the budget and staff, they are more prone to the devastating impacts of possible attacks. We emulate a human CISO, automatically providing IT and cybersecurity teams with a focused assessment and a prioritized remediation action plan,"
The rapid delivery company raised £20.4m from a syndicate including Heartland and Flint Capital to fund further growth.
"The pandemic certainly accelerated consumer’s needs for super-fast and convenient groceries, something supermarkets just can’t deliver. Jiffy only launched five months ago yet we are hugely proud of the rapid yet sustainable growth we have achieved."
