Upliift invests in software businesses supporting niche financial services markets across Europe. Our growing portfolio currently spans lending, credit, and insurance.
Our businesses are helping to deliver the digital transformation of finance, reducing cost and risk while enabling customers to provide better, smarter services.
We partner with founders who are ready to achieve long-term growth. Our flexible, permanent equity approach means you can make a full or partial exit while safeguarding the future of your business.
Our operational expertise, specific sector knowledge, and collaborative mindset can help you grow further, faster.
We felt we could do something special together. Upliift was interested in more than just the company and its numbers. There was a real human factor where we built personal relationships and trust with each other along every step of the journey.
We knew we were strong, and our size had always been irrelevant – as long as the banking landscape stayed the same. We saw this as a weak point in our future growth plans. In fact, we had already been approached by a few bigger companies looking to buy or merge with us, which would have given us the scale and numbers we might need in the future.
Our future would not be possible with VC funding. We needed a partner that shared our long-term aspirations – and we have this with Upliift.
We hadn’t come across Upliift before but trusted Andrea when he told us about the opportunity. We’d been looking for a partner and the idea of permanent equity appealed to us instead of going down the venture capital or private equity route. That’s because it didn’t feel like Upliift was just speculating, rather they were investing in our future.
Upliift shared our long-term vision, which is a real benefit to staff. They feel safe in their roles; we know we have a long path together. This is important for stability and internal relationships in the company.
We feel confident about the future now and are excited about the next chapter for our business.
