Seedrs, a top UK-based investment crowdfunding platform that operates across Europe, is reporting £84 million in investment across all securities offerings during the month of February (so Seedrs could top USD $ 1 billion during 2023)

  • Seedrs noted it booked its 49th exit of a portfolio company as Cushon, a Fintech, was acquired by Natwest Group. Seedrs investors received £7 million in returns, with the earliest investors capturing 5X times the money invested, before tax relief.  Cushon completed multiple funding rounds on Seedrs so later investors received smaller returns.

    • Tandem, a UK-based regulated digital bank,  raised £8 million in a Private Deal Room offering
    • OddBox, a Foodtech startup, raised £5.9million to fund their mission of having consumers use unwanted produce
    • Fantasy football platform Fantasy Football Hub raised £788,000
    • Fintech The Portfolio Platform secured £ 1.5 million for its tech investment platform
    • Sustainable Venture’s Sustainable Accelerator raised over £ 1.6 million in February. The fund invests in startups tackling climate change.
