Worldr Technologies secures £2.2 million Seed investment led by IQ Capital and Playfair Capital
Summary
Government agencies, law firms, banking institutions and those handling sensitive information face growing security challenges as the use of third-party communications platforms become embedded in the daily routines of a remote and work-from-home workforce. In tandem with Worldr’s development of its private, secure & compliant communication platform, the UK tech firm has also built a wrap-around application for Microsoft Teams, which saw its usage double in the last year to 145million users (as of April 2021)². Worldr has since attracted a world-class team of engineers, academics and marketers, including Bumble’s former lead designer, a PhD in Theoretical Astrophysics, and ex-Kaspersky experts, to drive the company’s mission to create a user-led self-sovereign communications tool.
