Community Pulse | Wrap-up of 2023

2024 already seems to be passing in a blur of activity. But let's take 2 minutes for a whistlestop review of 2023 – after all, it was some year!


?? Portfolio highlights

  • Newcomers MISHKAY, PolyAPI, and Zapp joined our ranks . Meanwhile, Whatagraph pivoted into a Marketing Data platform , Biotecus developed a new R&D center, and Hostinger International topped 2 million active users.
  • CAST AI secured a $20 million funding round, while Nord Security + Surfshark raised another $100M , doubling its valuation to $3 billion.
  • 4,300 people participated in 17,500 hours’ worth of internal training from our L&D team, while visits to our Physical Well-Being Team were up 2X to 12,000.


???? ICYMI (case study special)

Co-founders from Turing College , Flanco and Biotecus shared their stories in our case study series.


?? Homegrown successes

CyberCare increased its efficiency by 10% and helped 77 team members start new careers within our community, while Surfshark celebrated its 5th anniversary in style with a super slick new video .

It has to be the €2 million+ Radarom! fundraiser, when people donated over €1 million in 1 hour and we DOUBLED it (which proved inspiring for Tom ).

Btw, Radarom! 2024 has just launched. You have until Feb 24 to make your donation here .


?? Accelerating meaningful tech

  • Oxylabs.io partnered with Lithuania’s Environmental Protection Agency on Project 4β to develop an incredible tech tool for protecting animals and biodiversity. Meanwhile, Teachers Lead Tech won the Super Connect For Good 2023 award for the CEE region.
  • For the first time ever, we gathered all our Portfolio founders under one roof at CYBER CITY for Portfolio Brunch . The next meetup might include our special signature drink - Co-Founders Dream dedicated to our 15th birthday!
  • The action didn’t stop there as we hosted Inclusion Series across our universe (????????????), digged in CRO at Teso Talks, enhanced our knowledge at Cybersecurity Academy and made sure best of the best got inspired and celebrated at the Founders Summit (thanks to Kilo Health and Contrarian Ventures for a great collab).?
  • After such a storm of events, the Longevity Summit was a well needed happening to discuss our health with the scientists and enthusiasts.


So that's a wrap for this wrap-up :) A huge thank you to all of you - it is you who have made these achievements and successes possible.
