Menna has unusually credible founding team for this stage it’s hard not to be drawn to as an investor, with Dan, Nick and Jeremy collecting numerous C-Suite titles at organisations like Admiral and Confused.com, as well as previous experience at startups/scaleups. Their expertise is also supported an incredible network of regulated-finance, credit and product experience, demonstrating the exact coalition we want to foster around every company of ours.

The problem Menna speaks to is one we really believe in, and that it is worth solving. A £22bn UK SME funding gap, half of loan applications declined, three-quarters of SMEs unaware of alternatives and an overriding sense of support to improve being too generalist and not nearly embedded in tools people use to run businesses.

Menna’s bank-ready AI platform shows SMEs what lenders see and coaches them into fundable positions and from December 2025, banks must better explain rejections and help SMEs improve, creating space for Menna to provide unique value.

The long-term opportunity for Menna to become a trusted part of the operating toolkit for SMEs is truly massive and we are proud to support them.
