CEO
The £7m investment was led by Pembroke VCT with participation from 212, Active Partners, Velocity, and TIBAS Ventures.
"When we launched Bolt Insight in 2019, our mission was to bring real consumer voices into the heart of business decision-making. With the launch of BoltChatAI in 2022, we proved that AI-moderated qualitative research could deliver rich insight at unprecedented speed and scale."
Velocity and Arab Bank Ventures backed the Series A round to support the company's global expansion.
"Accessing finance for their clients is one of the key issues facing advisors. Finance is data-driven and borderless. With the influx of new lenders into the market, Swoop is able to connect SMEs and advisors with the funding they need wherever they are in the world. To date we’ve helped our businesses secure £500m to grow their businesses."
