The pre-seed investment was led by DMG Ventures with participation from Stride Capital, Octopus Ventures and Entree Capital to fund team expansion and operational growth.
"I’m delighted to announce this investment in my latest venture, Cazoo, and am very excited by the opportunity to transform the used car buying experience, which suffers from poor satisfaction and convenience and is failing to meet the needs of consumers. Buying a car should be no different to buying any other product online today."
BGF Ventures led the seed financing for Streetbees to support team expansion and platform development.
"In a world where brands are willing to invest huge amounts of resources to better understand their consumers, there has to be a better way to capture insights and Streetbees has found it. We use geolocation and mobile technology to engage the right person in the right place to answer brands' questions. Streetbees' grassroots research approach is providing the brands with the rich consumer insights they need at large scale at an affordable price as we connect them directly with their consumers without any intermediaries."
