Top Tech Startups in England, United Kingdom in 2024

Businesses in the drinks industry encounter unique challenges, such as significant liquidity constraints (with funds tied up in stock and lengthy payment terms), an outdated and complex supply chain, and a highly regulated global market that creates friction and barriers to international sales. Ferovinum has developed an end-to-end digital platform that empowers businesses to fund, produce, procure, and sell in global wine and spirits markets. The producers of spirits and wines are generally small to medium-sized businesses, and Ferovinum’s pitch is that its technology, which provides working capital and supply chain automation tools, will benefit from this rocket-boosted tech. It offers a comprehensive suite of foundational services, including capital funding, supply chain automation, international logistics, and access to global trade channels. The company’s founders certainly have experience in financial management, one having overseen structured commodity financing at the Macquarie Group and the other having a history of executive directing restructuring for investment banks. With production and distribution tools at its disposal, Ferovinum offers predictive inventory management, seamless integration, and international logistics. Its one-size-fits-all technology has already benefitted some of the oldest scotch whiskey distilleries in Scotland on a pilot scheme, funded by a £100 million investment in Ferovinum in 2021. Though still in its early days, the company seems set to attract more clients as its technology evolves.

Our vision is to bridge the gap between corporates and changemakers (charities and impact-first enterprises) through the exchange of skills and knowledge. To begin with, we are turning corporate employees into teachers for the non-profit sector. Through our platform, employees deliver the professional training that they receive, allowing them to revise it, anchor their knowledge and develop their soft skills. Most importantly, they make a long-term difference by upskilling charity workers and volunteers, allowing them to have a bigger impact on people's lives and the planet. After our first successful pilots, we are looking to grow our team as we grow our operations in 2024.

Today 17% of the world’s adult population need help to have a baby. By 2050 this need is projected to triple to ~50%. Only 2% of those in need can access fertility treatment today. We enable a future where 100% of those in need can access care. Our mission is to radically transform the success and accessibility of fertility care. We do this by empowering clinics, with a clear roadmap for driving change through a three-phase strategy, starting with our operating system. Our platform digitises all workflows across fertility clinics, helping care teams to focus less on admin and more on caring for patients. connected to it we have a patient app, guiding them through the often very difficult journey of fertility treatment. We are a small but experienced team, well funded by top European VC funds, and live with our product in over 8 countries. Today we have offices in Copenhagen and London and are expanding to New York in 2025.
