LinkedInThe financing round was led by AXA Venture Partners with participation from Swisscom Ventures, Investiere and VentureFounders.
"This is great news for us as we continue to thrive. This funding round marks the continued recognition of the strength of our team as we are now one of the biggest go-to-market data providers in Europe."
The London-based digital branding platform secured £2m from Notion Capital, Angel CoFund, and VentureFounders.
"Many years ago we set out to build a platform that would empower programmatic digital trading with levels of creativity not otherwise seen, while baking in as automated features, optimum solutions for real-time fraud management. It has taken a long time but we are truly excited to now be in market with what many say is a game-changing offering. Being able to close a round at this particular time is a testament to that technology offering and the belief shown by existing and new investors alike. I am also thrilled to welcome the Angel CoFund to the business."
The financing round was backed by Kindred Capital, Moneysupermarket Group, and VentureFounders.
"With £11m of growth capital we are now well‐positioned to expand our business and provide more clients with a simple way to maximise the interest income on their cash and at the same time become an increasingly valuable funding partner to our banks."
The content intelligence platform has secured backing to accelerate its expansion in the UK and US markets.
"idio is run by two highly entrepreneurial and ambitious individuals, who are aiming to revolutionise the way companies manage their online content to drive customer engagement. We are impressed by idio’s performance to date and its client portfolio including some of the global financial institutions."
The peer-to-peer currency exchange platform surpassed its initial target with backing from VentureFounders.
"This funding round, supported by VentureFounders, allows us to accelerate our already ambitious growth strategy and develop our team even further. We are delighted that VentureFounders are part of this investment round and look forward to working closely with them as we build our business."
