Series A
$15.0M

The funding round was led by Gresham House Ventures with backing from Balderton Capital, Eka Ventures, and Wavemaker360.

"The biggest bottleneck in healthcare isn't cost; it's access. Specialists are concentrated in a handful of postcodes; patients aren't. 32Co and Aerox have already brought expert dental treatments to areas of the UK where such treatments were inaccessible, proving the concept that specialist care could be democratised if the right technology layer existed underneath it,"
— Sonia Szamocki, Founder and CEO
Series A
$60.0M

The Cambridge startup secured backing from National Grid Partners and Gresham House Ventures to scale its distributed quantum computing architecture.

"When we launched seven years ago, very few were thinking about networked or distributed quantum computing as a strategy for scaling, but we saw it as one of the most urgent and challenging outstanding problems in the industry, and set out to solve it. We’ve made great strides in shaping the market and the technology since then."
— Carmen Palacios‑Berraquero, Founder
Series B
£5.0M

The funding round was led by Gresham House Ventures alongside growth lending from Palatine Growth Credit.

"This follow-on investment is a huge vote of confidence in our platform and our strategy. Retailers and brands need flexible, future-proof infrastructure to stay competitive, and Patchworks gives them the power and speed they need. We’re doubling down on the US market, scaling our partner ecosystem, and continuing to enhance the platform with AI and other innovations so our customers can connect, adapt and grow faster."
— Jim Herbert, CEO
