Helen Oldham
Co-Founder
Helen is co-founder of Lifted Ventures and a board member at the UK Business Angels Association. She also holds advisory and non-executive roles across several organisations, including Thrive Law and WPA Pinfold.
LinkedInThe funding combines angel investment with Innovate UK support to advance medical technology development.
"Taking part in the Elevate Her Accelerator was a turning point for ClotProtect. The support, mentorship and belief from the Lifted team, particularly from Jordan, has been instrumental in helping us secure Innovate UK funding and close this £1.2 million round. This investment gives us the platform to scale faster and bring our technology to more patients who need it."
Mint Ventures led the investment round with co-investment from Alma Angels and Lifted Ventures.
"We are thrilled to support My Bliss and their visionary team. Their commitment to improving women’s health through evidence-based innovation aligns perfectly with our mission to back diverse founders who are changing the world for the better. We believe My Bliss is poised to make a significant difference to women’s health, and we’re excited to be part of their journey."
The funding round includes support from Lifted Ventures to accelerate development of the TUBR Pulse platform.
"For years, operational teams have been forced to make decisions based on partial or unreliable data. With TUBR Pulse, we’re removing that barrier. Our technology gives businesses the confidence to act on real-time insights no matter how messy the data behind them may be."
The funding round was backed by angel investors from Lifted Ventures, Alma Angels, and the founders of World of Books.
"Our goal is to make it easy for everyone, regardless of age, ability or background, to enjoy the magic of books. Books have the power to change lives and with xigxag we are ensuring everyone has the opportunity to experience that power in a way that is affordable, sustainable and truly transformative."
Lifted Ventures led the seed investment alongside Mint Ventures.
"We are truly honoured to join BindEthics on their mission to replace harmful glues and support the critical healthy ageing sector. This is exactly the kind of purpose-led, women-led innovation that is aligned with our members investment values."
