Series B
$25.0M

The London startup secured $25m from backers including eBay and Andreessen Horowitz to automate secondhand fashion logistics.

"Most people have no idea what happens to a piece of clothing after they part with it. It travels thousands of miles, gets sorted by hand in a warehouse in Karachi, and finds its way back to a vintage shop in London or New York, if it’s lucky. We started Fleek because that system is broken, the market it serves is exploding, and nobody is building the technology and infrastructure to fix it,"
— Abhi Arora, Co-founder and CEO
Series A
£16.0M

The Series A financing was led by Forbion and HV Capital to fund a new pilot production line.

"The founders' mission is to combine scientific innovation with design excellence to create beautiful, environmentally friendly materials that meet the exacting standards of global luxury brands while enabling broad industry adoption."
— Yudí Ding, CEO
Series B
$15.0M

The Series B round was led by HV Capital and Unbound, with participation from Cristiano Ronaldo, to fund global expansion.

"Backing Bioniq goes beyond just an investment opportunity for me—it’s about aligning with a shared vision for health, performance, and longevity. I have been using their products myself for almost three years. With their personalized health approach, I believe Bioniq has the potential to transform how we care for our bodies and help people reach and maintain their peak performance for longer."
— Cristiano Ronaldo, Shareholder and Investor
Seed
$6.0M

The seed extension round was led by Balderton and HV Capital alongside company founder Simon Beckerman.

"Since stepping into the CEO role, Marie has taken DELLI’s growth to the next level, and the momentum is remarkable. Doubling down on our investment was a no-brainer, and I’m excited for what’s to come. DELLI has been one step ahead of shifting consumer behaviours around food and drink, and as more and more people opt for quality, independent craftsmanship over mass-produced and ultra-processed products, I have no doubt DELLI’s growth will continue to soar."
— Daniel Waterhouse, Partner
