- Ofiniti
Led · Equity · Mar 2026
Ofiniti provides a digital platform for maritime fuel operations that handles scheduling, operational coordination, and automated digital documentation for conventional and alternative fuels including LNG, methanol, biofuels, and ammonia. The company reported processing more than 25,000 bunker operations in 2025, including 500,000 metric tonnes of alternative fuels, and serves more than 50 customers globally. Ofiniti claims roughly 40% market share in Singapore and has expanded across Europe, West Africa, and the Amsterdam–Rotterdam–Antwerp region, supported by adoption from major fuel suppliers and shipping companies. Its platform is designed to improve efficiency, saving an average of 45 minutes per delivery, and the company expects volumes to increase significantly in 2026. Ofiniti spun out of DNV in 2024, is headquartered in Copenhagen, and recently acquired Singapore-based Angsana Technology to bolster its Asia‑Pacific presence.
- SkySelect
Led · Equity · Mar 2026
SkySelect operates a specialised AI marketplace that matches aviation part requests with optimal suppliers from a global network of thousands of vendors, giving airlines real-time visibility into parts availability and pricing. The platform streamlines end-to-end procurement through integrations with major ERP providers, allowing just-in-time purchasing that lessens the need for costly safety stock. Since launch the company has processed more than $6 billion in transactions, including $1.3 billion in 2025 alone, and is currently landing roughly one new major airline customer each month, with recent wins such as JetBlue, Sun Country Airlines, Air Transport Services Group, Widerøe, and Vueling. By reducing shipments up to 30 %, SkySelect helps customers cut logistics costs and carbon emissions while mitigating the estimated $30 billion annual impact of aircraft-on-ground incidents. The Estonian-founded firm addresses a market where airlines spend about $40 billion on parts yet still hold roughly $50 billion in excess inventory. With fresh capital, SkySelect plans to deepen its AI sourcing and optimisation capabilities and expand headcount across product development, data science, and customer success teams in its U.S., India, and Estonia offices.
- Installio
Led · Seed · Nov 2025
Installio develops a technology platform that arms heat-pump installers with the digital tools and processes needed to deliver consistently high-quality retrofit projects. By partnering with major energy providers such as E.ON Next, Aira and Good Energy—as well as contractors, house builders and housing associations—the company aims to accelerate nationwide adoption of clean-energy systems. Its software standardises installation workflows, giving partners confidence that complex retrofit work can be executed correctly and at volume. Co-founder and CCO William Hoyer Millar positions the firm as setting “a new standard for clean-energy installs.” The business plans a national rollout of its offering across the UK and aspires to become a leading clean-energy delivery platform. To fuel this expansion, it has secured £1.5 million in seed funding. Former UK energy minister Lord Martin Callanan serves as a company director, reinforcing the firm’s policy and industry credentials.
