LinkedInThe investment was led by NVM Private Equity and will fund product development.
"Tutorful started with a simple mission: to radically improve the quality and accessibility of private tutoring throughout the UK, and since 2015, we’ve already helped over 100,000 parents and students achieve their goals. This investment and support by NVM will help us accelerate our product innovation, particularly our online platform, to help us reach an even greater number of parents."
The funding round was led by NVM Private Equity to accelerate global growth and product expertise.
"Chemigraphic has a fabulous customer base and is extremely well placed to become a significant global provider of Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS). We are delighted that NVM shares our vision and has decided to invest in and back the team. The investment will enable us to implement planned strategic investments in our global footprint and hence capitalise on a number of extremely exciting growth opportunities. We are very much looking forward to partnering with the NVM team as we embark upon this next exciting phase in our development"
The Manchester based retail delivery platform has raised £15m from Praetura Ventures and NVM Private Equity to scale its product roadmap and expand its workforce.
NVM Private Equity led the Series A round to support workforce expansion and product development.
"This investment is a big vote of confidence for Quotevine and the work we are doing. There is a big shift taking place in the asset and auto finance sector, driven by the prevalence of interesting technologies like AI and IoT. Businesses in this space have a huge opportunity to get ahead by understanding how these technologies can be adopted to drive operational value and better meet customers shifting demands and need for personalisation. We are thrilled we have NVM on board and look forward to building our business."
NVM Private Equity and Maven Capital Partners backed the £7m Series A round to accelerate growth and platform development.
"We are on an absolute mission to deliver the UK’s best mortgage experience and make mortgages easy. The UK mortgage market is the largest in Europe, but investment into the sector has been disproportionate in comparison to other financial verticals. This has resulted in poor customer experience and a significant lack of innovation. Mojo intends to put that right."
NVM Private Equity led the investment round with participation from Archangels and the Scottish Investment Bank.
"Our investors are a key part of our team, and I’m delighted to have NVM join us on the journey as we work together to build a company focussed on delivering success for our customers."
