Series C
$300M

The $300m Series C values the defence tech startup at $3.4bn following backing from DFJ Growth.

"This raise is testament to the incredible work of the entire Cambridge Aerospace team. The addition of these funds will allow us to continue to scale our manufacturing and our delivery to meet the pace of threats, and the needs of Allied nations,"
— Steven Barrett, Chief Executive
Seed
£6.0M

The seed round was co-led by AlbionVC and Spark Capital to support product development.

"AI gives us the opportunity to transform not only how developers create games, but also how players experience them. While many companies are using AI to optimise existing workflows, we're focused on enabling something fundamentally new – emergent, interactive animation that reacts in real time. Our aim is to evolve the animation paradigm towards emergent physical behaviors, opening up new creative possibilities for developers and dynamic experiences for players."
— Jorge del Val, co-founder and CEO
Series B
$43.0M

The London-based artificial intelligence note-taking startup secured backing from Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross.

"Since our launch a year ago, people have started referring to Granola as their ‘second brain’. With Granola 2.0, we’re bringing that power to your entire team, tapping into the most up-to-date, relevant data on what’s happening in your company, the conversations your employees are having day in, day out"
— Christopher Pedregal
