Paul Forster
Founder of Indeed.com
Paul previously worked at Hewlett Packard and owned Academy X before coaching and mentoring in sports and business.
LinkedInPlayfair led the pre-seed round for the London-based conversational commerce startup, with participation from several prominent tech angels.
"WhatsApp is about to become the default commerce channel for businesses. OpenAI wants those conversations to happen in ChatGPT and Google wants them in Search, but customers already spend their time on WhatsApp. We built Wassist so brands can own those conversations themselves,"
OpenOcean led the Series A financing for Purple Dot to support platform development and market expansion.
The funding round was backed by Conviction VC, Passion Capital, Senovo, and prominent angel investors.
"Despite organisations investing heavily into content-based security awareness training, most security incidents are still caused by human mistakes. IT and security teams use our platform to surface behavioural data, spot these mistakes and empower employees to resolve them. Our clients are empowered to prevent any recurrence of these mistakes much more effectively than they would with traditional security awareness training."
The Series A round was led by Untitled VC and will support national expansion and technological development.
"This new funding will be used primarily to develop our technology and invest deeply into the complete decarbonisation of our proprietary washing process."
The NFT platform raised funding from notable angel investors including Paul Forster to support its curated digital art marketplace.
"For artists, just as in the traditional art world, marketing and selling NFTs is a huge job and requires specialist knowledge and skills. It’s unlikely the world’s best digital artists will rise to the top if they also have to be world-class at web3 marketing in order to do so. We’re therefore helping artists join forces with people who really get it, leaving the artist to do what they do best – create amazing works!"
