"Open banking has laid the groundwork to reduce payment costs by creating the necessary conditions, but most A2A payment companies haven't been able to leverage this potential. At Volume, we've cracked the problem. We're solving the adoption challenges of account-to-account payments by focusing on the user experience for both businesses and consumers, offering a faster, more secure solution that puts both parties first. Our traction shows that pay-by-bank can be a scalable business model, and we're close to profitability with a clear product-market fit in cross-border payments. Like Stripe did with the shift from cash to card, we're leading the transition from debit cards to bank payments in open banking, while growing sustainably. If widely adopted, Volume could save businesses up to $44 billion per year."

"Today’s recruiters are incredibly busy and have to constantly switch between their work and personal mobiles, WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams, and other channels to communicate with candidates and clients. None of these conversations are being tracked in the CRM or brought together in one place. Recruiters are spending up to two hours a day on manual tasks like writing up call notes, gathering messages and updating CRMs."

"I’m delighted to be a part of the CybaVerse team. I have been completely drawn to Ollie’s ambitions and goals and the company’s innovation and creativity, which I believe will significantly benefit the security community at large. Cyber security is the most critical challenge in the digital world and we must support SMEs with a more efficient way to defend against the threats they face, otherwise we will always be on the backfoot to adversaries. I believe CybaVerse is making strides in tackling this important issue and I am delighted I will be playing a part in helping them reach this goal with my skills, experience and network."

"Until now, receipts have represented nothing but waste and a wasted opportunity. We’re transforming the humble receipt from its static, destined-for-landfill status into a data-rich source of customer insight. The response we’ve seen from our early adopter retail partners says it all: our software drives engagement and unlocks valuable customer data. We’ve seen huge spikes in everything from email sign-ups to app downloads for the brands using our software. This investment will enable us to work with more retailers, make our products even more impactful, and prevent billions of receipts from heading to landfill."
