Fuel Ventures and Oxford Capital co-led the pre-seed round to accelerate product development for the technology firm.

"AI-powered bots and agents are a powerful tool but they also pose a growing threat. These AI agents give people superhuman powers to shape narratives, manipulate systems, and undermine trust at scale. At Egregious, we’re building a defense line for humanity. With Oxford Capital and Fuel Ventures behind us, we’re ready to face these global challenges head-on and redefine how we combat AI-driven deception."
— Rupert Small, CEO and Founder
Seed

The oversubscribed round was co-led by Mercuri and Sure Valley Ventures to expand the engineering and enterprise sales teams.

"Ittybit was created to address the pain we felt handling large videos in our previous companies. We built the media tools we wished we’d had access to, and are making them available to all developers, because robust media workflows shouldn’t be so expensive or complicated that only the largest tech companies can access them."
— Paul Williams, Founder
Pre-Seed
£710K

Oxford Capital led the pre-seed round to help the startup launch its first product.

"As two women from the North East, we’ve had to overcome significant challenges to get to this stage. But as a result, we’re extremely intentional in our approach. And we’re unwavering in our commitment to do right by people"
— Laura Mills, COO
Seed
£1.1M

Aviva Ventures led the seed financing round for the London-based healthtech firm, with participation from Ascension, Oxford Capital, and Cur8 Capital.

"So far, we’ve been driven by a singular mission to unlock and simplify access to everything you need to live a healthier life, which requires a shift in how health and well-being services are provided and paid for, and means putting the user in the driver seat and giving them more control. By creating an integrated network of health providers and payers, we can improve access to personalised health services, particularly in traditionally underfunded and underserved areas, such as early diagnosis, women’s health, mental health and neurodiversity."
— David Joerring, Co-Founder and CEO

The investment round was co-led by Aviva Ventures, YZR Capital, Oxford Capital, Triple Point Ventures and Simplyhealth Ventures to fund US expansion and new product development.

"Our investment in Scan.com is a statement of our intent to invest in promising young digital and tech firms – they are growing rapidly, have a unique customer proposition and are already leading the way on medical imaging services in the UK. We are really excited to support Scan.com’s development and growth."
— Ben Luckett, Chief Innovation Officer
Seed
£3.0M

Parkwalk Advisors led the financing round, which will support UK sales growth and international expansion plans.

"For scaling companies, keeping track of terms across hundreds or thousands of contracts is a challenge that creeps up on you. Searching for basic information like contract start and end dates, or nuances in confidentiality terms across entire databases of contracts is painfully manual, or impossible. Before working with us, we know that some of our customers would spend weeks doing this"
— Charles Brecque, Founder and CEO
Seed
£3.3M

The funding round was led by Mercia alongside Oxford Capital and angel investors to support product enhancement and international growth.

"While many care providers are still using paper, there is growing pressure from regulators and government for them to go digital. Log my Care provides an easy-to-use solution that covers all the bases and is affordable even for smaller providers. The company has been expanding rapidly and this new funding will further boost its growth. We’re looking forward to supporting Sam, Adam and the team as they help improve social care across the UK and beyond."
— Alex Gwyther
Seed
£1.5M

The seed round was co-led by Insurtech Gateway and AV8 Ventures to support the launch of new insurance products for chronic conditions.

"Insurtech Gateway and AV8 Ventures are the ideal partners for Bluezone Insurance; their deep industry expertise, insurance network and track record of de-risking early-stage insurtech businesses from regulatory approvals and insurance capacity clearly differentiates them from other seed stage funds. Collaborating with them will accelerate our process of launching a product into the market and achieving the milestones required for the next investment round. During our fundraising journey, they provided us with ample support, progressed quickly and made introductions to impactful angels and excellent co-investors."
— Karan Mehta, Co-Founder & CEO

"Increasing access to the right diagnostic imaging and testing is vital to saving lives. It offers preventive healthcare that, if delayed, can cause significant problems to the patient and put even greater pressure on the healthcare system. In my role as an osteopath I've seen how the deterioration of patient wellbeing can be impacted by the cost and access of such tests. With this new investment we can continue to grow our network to get the tests that help to direct patients to the optimal therapy for the best outcome."
— Jasper Nissim, Co-Founder and UK Managing Director

— Christian Teichmann, Managing Director
Seed
$2.1M

The funding round was backed by Social Capital, Oxford Capital and 7percent Ventures.

"As a successful former headhunter I was placing senior executives, and I saw exceptional employees leaving work to have a baby and struggling to get back in. Firms passed on perfect candidates because they were uncomfortable with bespoke arrangements. I knew things had to change, and I wanted to be the driver of that change. Employees aren't asking for anything revolutionary, just to be able to work in the way that's most efficient and productive for them. Flexibility enables people to maximise their energy and skills, and that's a huge benefit for employers once they realise it. The investment we've secured is a vote of confidence in something we already know is true."
— Romanie Thomas, Founder and CEO

— Jeremy King, Founder and CEO
