The investment round was led by Perwyn, BGF, MMC Ventures and Joe Wicks to support technology expansion and fulfilment capacity.
"We continue to be laser-focused on our vision to become the UK’s most-loved way to eat dinner. This additional investment is not only a validation of our track record, but it is also an endorsement of our strategic vision of the future which is rooted in investing in innovative technology to transform the way we search for, shop for, and cook our food."
MMC Ventures led the Series A investment with co-investment from Forward Partners to support scaling as demand for real-time services grows.
"This funding allows us to really ramp investment in the platform and build more features that we know developers need to further integrate into other event-driven platforms and support more open protocols."
Passion Capital led the seed round for the raw materials prediction startup.
"At ChAI we’ve been tremendously encouraged by the near-instant and overwhelmingly positive response we’ve received to our methodology and predictions on commodities pricing. The inbound interest we’ve received for our “signals” and approach has been hugely validating and we look forward to introducing our services to many more companies in 2020. For this we’re excited to partner with such esteemed investors and business builders to progress our journey and take the company to the next level"
Acton Capital and MMC Ventures backed the latest funding round to accelerate technology developments in home care delivery.
"This is an exciting time for Elder customers and families everywhere who are looking for vital support and care. This new funding will be used to further improve our live-in care experience so even more people up and down the UK can make sure their loved ones get to remain happy, independent and supported in their own home rather than being forced out of it and into a care home."
