- Yodawy
Participated · Series B · Feb 2023
Yodawy develops a healthcare platform focused on prescription fulfillment and delivery to address major issues in Egypt’s healthcare system. The company partners with insurance companies and healthcare service providers to enhance patient access and experience. Yodawy serves about 35 health insurance and healthcare service providers and has contracts with over 800 businesses, 20 hospitals, and 30 clinics. It works with roughly 3,000 pharmacies across Egypt and has fulfilled over 6 million prescriptions since founding. The company plans to use new funding to grow its customer base and expand technology-enabled prescription fulfillment services to add value to the healthcare services industry. Yodawy operates a technology platform that digitizes the end-to-end prescription cycle, including an e-prescription gateway for doctors, an approvals engine for insurers and an e-pharmacy fulfillment offering. The company serves roughly 300 corporate clients, partners with 20 health insurers and 500 doctors, and works with a network of about 3,000 pharmacies. Its platform processes almost 200,000 prescriptions monthly across 30 cities and has handled over 4 million prescriptions through corporate programs; its e-prescription gateway generates more than 2,000 e-prescriptions daily. Yodawy reports serving more than 50,000 recurring chronic patients monthly and says revenue has grown 400% since its last priced round 18 months ago. The startup runs a Care Program that provides monthly medication refills and processes daily deliveries across 38 Egyptian cities. It plans to use new capital to expand across Middle East and Africa, scale prescription processing, automate operations further and bolster tech-enabled fulfillment capabilities. Yodawy is a Cairo-based medicine delivery and digital claims startup operating iOS and Android apps that let users browse and order medicines and personal-care products from nearby pharmacies. The app supports medical insurance co-payment plans and claims processing. The company partners with more than 2,500 pharmacies across 30 cities in Egypt. Yodawy positions itself as a pharmacy benefits and claims-processing solution for consumers, pharmacies and insurers. It won the Sanofi pitch competition at VivaTechnology 2019, and investors have praised its vision and go-to-market progress.

- Threads Styling
Led · Equity · Mar 2022
Threads Styling is a London, UK–based global luxury chat-based shopping platform providing personalized service over social media and chat-based commerce. Founded in 2009 by Sophie Hill, the company delivers curated styling and shopping experiences via chat and social channels. The business recently launched an ecommerce platform and a dedicated Live Shopping strategy to expand how clients can be inspired and engage with Threads brands. Threads intends to use the new funding to continue expanding its product offering while amplifying its curated ecommerce website and Live Shopping events. The company raised $12m in a funding round to support these initiatives. The round follows the company’s recent push into ecommerce and live shopping as additional client engagement channels. Threads delivers luxury shopping through human shopping assistants over messaging apps (WeChat, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Instagram, iMessage) rather than a traditional website or marketplace. The company pairs a strong editorial strategy with a novel distribution method so customers receive recommendations directly in apps they already use. Threads reports customers in over 100 countries and a WeChat‑first approach that attracted a significant Chinese customer base. The business works with major fashion houses including Dior, Fendi and Chopard, and the company has built a £multimillion global fashion‑tech business. Operational metrics cited in the article include an average spend of $3,000 per shopping session. Threads has been recognized commercially and in industry programs, having joined Future Fifty in 2017 and appearing on Tech Track 100; the team doubled the company’s size in 2018.
- ConsenSys
Participated · Series D · Mar 2022
ConsenSys develops core Ethereum infrastructure and consumer products, most notably the MetaMask wallet and the Infura developer platform, alongside Truffle, PegaSys and Codefi. Its products serve both developers and end users across the Ethereum ecosystem; MetaMask has over 30 million monthly active users and Infura reports 430,000 developers, with its API supporting over $1 trillion in annualized on‑chain ETH transaction volume. The company reported “nine figures” in revenue in 2021. ConsenSys plans to use new funding to grow its team from about 700 to roughly 1,000 by year‑end and to expand product capabilities, including a plug‑in extensibility system to integrate other protocols and pursue multi‑chain scalability. The firm completed a 2020 reorganization that moved assets from ConsenSys Mesh into ConsenSys Software Inc. and was founded in 2014. That asset transfer is the subject of shareholder allegations alleging improper shifts of assets and a group is pushing for an independent audit in Switzerland; ConsenSys Mesh says it expects any audit to confirm fair market value. ConsenSys builds Web3 infrastructure and developer tools, anchored by MetaMask (a self-custodial wallet) and Infura (developer node and API services). MetaMask serves approximately 21 million monthly active users who interact with roughly 3,700 unique Web3 applications, and its in-app swap feature has enabled more than $10 billion in token swaps. Infura is used by about 350,000 developers, and ConsenSys integrates other products (Truffle, Diligence, Customer Success) to support the full development lifecycle. The company supports many Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 networks, and MetaMask Institutional offers custody and compliance solutions for organizations accessing DeFi. ConsenSys Quorum Blockchain Service is used in 10 central bank digital currency projects worldwide. The firm says funding will expand MetaMask and Infura and add 400 new roles across products and services. ConsenSys’ engineering teams are also contributing to Ethereum’s upcoming merge to Proof of Stake. ConsenSys develops a suite of Ethereum products and developer tools including Codefi, Diligence, Infura, MetaMask, Truffle and Quorum. The company serves public and private permissioned networks, supports Layer 2 solutions and provides access to adjacent protocols such as IPFS and Filecoin. It restructured into two arms — ConsenSys (the core software business) and ConsenSys Mesh (the investment arm and incubator) — and acquired J.P. Morgan’s Quorum to deepen its enterprise offering. ConsenSys is a major contributor to Ethereum 2.0 and its Protocols group is building CBDCs for six central banks. Product usage metrics cited in the articles include MetaMask with more than 3 million monthly active users (a roughly 3x increase in five to six months), $1.8 billion in decentralized exchange swap volume (ConsenSys takes a 0.875% cut on swaps), Infura with over 150,000 developer users, and Truffle used by 4.5 million developers. ConsenSys develops blockchain solutions built on the Ethereum blockchain for a range of users, from local communities to global enterprises. The company provides enterprise and community-facing blockchain tools and services. The article reports a $10 million investment from SK Group. ConsenSys' technology focus and partnerships position it to support mobile identity and other enterprise blockchain use cases. No operating metrics (revenue or user counts) are provided in the article.
- Nothing
Led · Series B · Mar 2022
Nothing positions itself as a community-centric consumer technology brand and has repeatedly tapped crowdfunding to deepen engagement with its user base. The company just completed its third community funding round, bringing in over £5.3 million from 4,643 individual backers in under a week. These three community raises now total close to $13 million, alongside a previously announced $200 million Series C round. The latest campaign was priced at £2.7972 ($3.7236) per share and executed at a £976.56 million ($1.3 billion) pre-money valuation, mirroring the Series C terms. Nothing framed the £5.3 million tranche as part of a larger £150.24 million financing effort. By enabling retail investors to come in for as little as $50, the company aims to build a loyal base of brand advocates while retaining greater control than traditional VC routes typically allow. Its current financial posture combines substantial institutional backing with an active retail shareholder community.
