Founded in 2022 by ex-Revolut executives Alan Chang and Charles Orr, Fuse Energy supplies energy to more than 300,000 UK households and is building a 1 GW generation pipeline. The company says it runs the full energy value chain in-house—generation, trading and retail—which it credits with delivering roughly 17% efficiency gains versus legacy providers. Fuse uses proprietary trading algorithms and a digital twin of each customer property to predict demand and optimise supply at the household level. Management reports the business has been EBITDA-positive every month since December 2025 and that ARR grew 32% in Q1 to over €472 billion ($550 million). Fuse is opening a 32,000 sq ft headquarters in Canary Wharf, plans to hire over 380 people in the next 12 months, and intends to expand into Europe and North America while launching a plug-in solar product for homes.

Model ML, founded by brothers Chaz and Arnie Englander and based in London and New York, provides AI automation software for financial services that routes tasks to the AI model best suited to each job. The company works with banks, asset managers and advisory firms to automate workflows across research, due diligence, financial analysis and document creation, and lists Deloitte and PwC among its clients. Model ML emerged from stealth with $12M in initial funding, raised a $75M Series A led by FT Partners last year, and has now raised more than $100M in total. The firm emphasizes a model-agnostic orchestration approach rather than relying on a single model. Management says it will use new funding to expand sales and win more banking and asset-manager customers. HSBC Asset Management has joined the cap table via its VC strategy.

Deblock merges traditional banking features with blockchain infrastructure by linking a regulated euro current account to a personal, self-owned crypto wallet, enabling users to manage fiat, investments, and DeFi access in one place. Founded by former Revolut and Ledger executives, the company launched in France in April 2024 and has already attracted more than 300,000 customers. Its regulatory posture is strong: Deblock is authorised by the Banque de France as an Electronic Money Institution and holds a MiCA licence from the AMF. Core features include everyday payments, savings via Vaults, and direct entry to decentralised finance while preserving user self-custody. The business model targets consumers seeking security and usability without relinquishing control of their assets. With fresh capital, Deblock plans to build local teams, localise its product, and add German-language support ahead of a rollout in Germany. Management sees Germany’s mature digital-finance ecosystem and clear regulations as critical to accelerating adoption of on-chain banking across Europe.
