The good news never stops at Tech Nation! Last week they announced details of the innovative Climate Tech companies participating in Net Zero 2.0 and today, they’ve revealed details of the 15 companies that have been selected to join the Future Fifty programme - their growth programme for late-stage digital businesses.
Since its launch in 2013, 202 companies have taken part in the programme, collectively raising $36bn in venture capital investment. 11 of those have gone on to IPO, including Deliveroo, Darktrace, and Wise (London’s largest-ever tech listing) as well as Revolut - the UK’s single largest tech company, valued at £23bn. The programme reflects the growth of the UK tech sector, and the “funnel” which takes companies from seed to billion-dollar valuations.
Gerard Grech, Founding Chief Executive, Tech Nation, comments: “The companies selected to join this year’s Future Fifty programme are a shining example of the UK’s entrepreneurship, innovation and resilience. The UK tech sector is the cornerstone of our economic growth, the 15 companies joining Future Fifty 10.0 collectively employ over 5,000 people and have raised almost $1.6bn in venture capital investment.
