"Like many people, I know first-hand the frustrations of trying to manage long-term conditions. Our goal is to give both patients and clinicians the tools and insights they need to have better conversations and make more informed treatment decisions together. The pilot in NHS England is our first step towards making Aide available to everyone with chronic illness."

"Very early in our journey we recognised there was a real challenge in how growing businesses navigate the fragmented global payments ecosystem – much like in the consumer market there has been a great unbundling of financial services that has improved choice but created greater complexity. We believe the answer to this is curation and not orchestration – a deeper set of connections that can support not only complex payment flows, but those same flows across multiple geographies and payment types. We are thrilled that this vision resonated with such a prestigious group of investors and industry leaders."

"We have seen a clear societal shift towards remote work, a trend that we believe will continue to accelerate at pace. We should embrace the opportunities that this presents, and platforms like Virtual Internships help students and graduates from around the world to acquire new skills that will accelerate their career growth and prepare them for the 21st-century workplace. Our mission is to bridge the gap between education and the workforce by making global remote work experience accessible to all in a digital and borderless world."

"Traditional clinical research companies are dinosaurs. Taking part in a COVID vaccine trial was like stepping into a time machine. This was one of the best funded trials in history but research was done on pen and paper and participants had to go into hospital at the height of the pandemic to fill out forms. We founded Lindus Health to make it easier for patients to participate in research, and accelerate the development of new treatments."

"At the UN’s COP26 summit, world leaders, CEOs and celebrities will announce promises to address the climate crisis. But how hollow are these promises? Corporates, investors and governments are accused of greenwashing and will likely fall short of their commitments. A large part of this is due to a lack of accurate, validated and transparent data."

"Managing credit risk is central to lender activity but SME owners typically overlook it. This restricts their growth and jeopardises their survival. While the digitalisation of financial services was on course to deliver SMEs with efficient access to new capital providers, the pandemic highlighted the fragility of their supply chains. As they emerge, their ability to recover and protect capital, while boosting their appeal to the lending community will be crucial. Capital Reports will make an unprecedented and timely contribution to SMEs’ ability to survive, and grow, in the UK within the coming months, in South Africa in Q4 with more countries to follow."

"The pandemic has shown us that employers can’t just talk about supporting their employees’ health and wellbeing anymore, they have to take action. More and more leading businesses are turning to us to provide the support their people really need – not a one-size-fits all solution, but support that is trustworthy, personalised and delivered by experts. We’re still at the surface of what is possible for Peppy."

"This latest round of investment is a great recognition of our customers' success through our breakthrough AI and a product focused approach. With our existing investors reaffirming their support of the company and new investors with vast experience in the life sciences industry coming on board, we are on course to achieve our core mission of improving patient outcomes through a highly profitable and sustainable business model. In the past 12 months, the company has grown 15 times through the successful deployment of PIE in the biopharmaceutical industry, partnerships with healthcare data providers and significant contributions to peer review publications, which demonstrates that we are leading in this sector. This funding will accelerate this success by providing the resources to strengthen the team, explore new use cases, and expand into new markets."

"Our mission is to ensure all property sellers achieve the best price they can for their property."

"We’re delighted to have Hambro Perks and Ascension Ventures leading SteadyPay’s latest funding round. This raise will further strengthen our commitment to service the UK’s gig-economy with a powerful and ethical solution to income volatility. We’re thrilled with the results and customer feedback to date, and we look forward to driving scale in 2020."

"Moving jobs or hiring a new employee should be the most exciting part of your professional life – it’s the start of a new journey and new opportunities. Unfortunately, most of us have been left jaded by slow, monotonous and demoralising recruitment processes and agencies,"

"We are completely transforming the way that companies recruit."
