Lookiero Outfittery Group runs a digital personal shopping service that blends advanced personalisation algorithms with a network of professional shoppers to curate fashion boxes for customers. The company leverages proprietary recommendation models to match individual preferences, then ships tailored outfits to users across its 12-country footprint. In 2025 it completed the technological and logistical integration of the formerly separate Lookiero and Outfittery operations, enabling a unified platform and improved operational efficiency. That integration helped Lookiero achieve positive EBITDA, marking an important profitability milestone. With fresh capital, management plans to deepen AI capabilities for personalisation, demand forecasting, and supply planning while continuing to rely on human stylists for a hybrid service experience. The firm also aims to capture additional merger synergies to further boost margins and customer satisfaction.

Lhoopa operates a technology platform that uses machine learning and AI to analyze listings, identify undervalued properties, and digitize bureaucratic workflows for brokers, contractors and other stakeholders. The company partners with local brokers and contractor groups rather than selling directly to end customers, providing dedicated apps for brokers and contractors to coordinate listings, work progress and payments. Lhoopa monitors around 9,000 areas across the Philippines and has sold over 2,500 affordable houses in more than 58 cities. The firm employs 95 people and works with roughly 5,000 agents and 100 contractor groups. Lhoopa plans to expand its customer base to include people without full-time employment (eg, gig workers) and aims to enter at least one other Southeast Asian country within the next 18 months. Management says the company is already profitable and will use new capital to grow real estate acquisition and construction operations.

Isar Aerospace develops the Spectrum small-satellite orbital launch vehicle and positions itself as a commercial launch provider. Founded in 2018 in Munich, the company operates a 40,000 square metre production facility in Parsdorf designed to produce up to 40 Spectrum rockets per year, with vehicles three through seven already in production. Its launch manifest is booked through 2028 with customers including ESA, NOSA, ElevationSpace and Astroscale, and it operates from Andøya with a second launch site secured in Canada (Spaceport Nova Scotia). The company has pursued industrial partnerships such as a cooperation agreement with TKMS and received institutional backing including a €65 million NATO Innovation Fund extension in 2024. Spectrum’s qualification flight window opened June 15–21 after an initial March 30, 2025 launch that lasted under 30 seconds and several subsequent aborted attempts; reaching orbit is a milestone that would establish Isar as a commercial provider. With the recent financing, total funding across equity and debt is about €870 million, and capital is being directed at production scale-up, launch infrastructure, and executing its booked manifest.

May Mobility develops and sells autonomous vehicle systems—specifically retrofitted Toyota Sienna minivans—on geofenced routes under multi-year, multi-million-dollar contracts with cities. The company focuses on B2B deployments in mid-size municipalities rather than large-scale robotaxi rollouts, which it says enables earlier path to profitability and lower burn. May Mobility has announced deployments or deals in Ann Arbor (its HQ), Arlington, Detroit, Grand Rapids, Sun City and plans to enter Contra Costa County by early 2024, with Southeast expansion expected. Management says as AV tech advances and costs fall, the company intends to expand into other segments such as trucking, logistics and robotaxis. Financially, May Mobility has raised roughly $300 million to date, including a $105 million financing announced this week, and counts Toyota and BMW among strategic backers. May Mobility develops low-speed autonomous shuttles and vehicle platforms (including modified Toyota Sienna S-AM vehicles) for public-transportation augmentation and ride-hail use. The company currently operates vehicles in five cities — Arlington, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, Fishers and Hiroshima — and has about 20 S-AMs in its fleet, most in Ann Arbor. May is working with partners including Toyota, SoftBank and MONET Technologies and has begun development work to integrate its kit onto Toyota’s e-Palette platform. The startup recently completed AV pilots (for example at Hiroshima University) and plans further trials in Tokyo’s Takeshiba district. May says it will use new funding to triple corporate headcount (particularly engineering), expand U.S. and Japan deployments, and pursue driver-out operations in 2023. Its total disclosed funding to date is $194 million. May Mobility develops and operates autonomous low-speed shuttle services, with deployments in Detroit and Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Providence, Rhode Island. The company currently runs 25 autonomous shuttles across those three cities and plans to expand to roughly 25 vehicles per city to improve economics and impact. Founded in 2017, May Mobility positions itself in the transportation-as-a-service space with local shuttle fleets. The startup raised $50 million in a Series B led by Toyota, following a $22 million raise less than a year earlier. The new capital will be used to expand its AV shuttle fleet and to grow engineering and operations staff. May is working with Toyota as one of its autonomous driving providers for future open platforms and will explore pairing its technology with Toyota's e-Palette platform. May Mobility operates full-stack, low-speed autonomous vehicle fleets and provides daily public transit services for public and private customers. Its solution combines vehicle hardware and software, expert fleet operations, and a cloud-based business insights platform that monitors fleet health and ridership analytics. The company targets the $28B U.S. last-mile transportation market and currently operates commercial services in downtown Detroit, MI and Columbus, OH, with planned launches in Grand Rapids, MI and Providence, RI and additional U.S. deployments in 2019. May’s fleet has provided more than 35,000 rides in Columbus and Detroit, and the company reports it is generating revenue while collecting technical and market data. The business emphasizes scalable operations and real-world data collection to improve its technology with each mile driven. The company works with transit agencies, developers, and other partners to design and operate dependable shared mobility services. May Mobility develops and operates self-driving small shuttle fleets intended to replace existing transportation options for corporate and other clients. The company focuses on practical, route-defined autonomous solutions using currently available technology and manages fleets end-to-end, including vehicle maintenance and daily operation. Its team includes DARPA Urban Challenge participants and veterans from Ford, GM, Toyota and the University of Michigan’s automotive programs. May ran a pilot with Detroit-based Bedrock in October that the company says demonstrated its technology and service readiness. The company raised $11.5 million in seed funding and plans to use the proceeds to hire additional employees and expand coverage to more U.S. cities by the end of 2018. It intends to launch its first commercial operations later in 2018.
