Hello wamo community,

Yanki here, CEO and Founder of wamo. Today I’m excited to share a major milestone in wamo’s journey - our recent investment partnership with EdenBase.

Being chosen for investment by a venture capital fund such as EdenBase really validates wamo’s potential - not just as a great product, but as a company that’s going to reshape the future of business finance. 

Who is EdenBase?

For those of you who are unfamiliar, EdenBase is a UK-based venture capital fund co-led by a visionary tech and fintech leader Eric van der Kleij and his partners. Eric’s initiatives have supported approximately one-third of the UK’s unicorns including some famous names such as Revolut, and we are very pleased to be one of their first fintech investments. 

EdenBase’s expertise lies in identifying, and, through investment and their “Supergrowth” support, nurturing the forward-thinking companies who are leveraging cutting-edge frontier technologies to create value and drive positive impact. Which is exactly what we built wamo to do. 

EdenBase invests across a wide range of tech sectors, but it’s a testament to the strength of our mission to have been selected by them, as we strive to make financial services more accessible, affordable and user-friendly, and shows just how much potential there is in our unique approach.

In the words of EdenBase Partner, Eric Van der Kleij:  “wamo is at a real inflection point and uniquely positioned to become a powerful champion of SMEs from both the North and South of Continental Europe through its impressive offering and customer experience. It’s only scratched the surface of what is possible - especially in next-generation banking that can be super-charged by frontier technologies, and we’re delighted to back the wamo team to continue innovating and evolving the proposition to offer the best-in-class fintech solutions for SMEs as they scale across Europe.”

Benefits beyond funding

We’ll be using this capital injection as part of our recent round to accelerate product development, expand our talented team and broaden our service offerings across Europe. Which means a better, more comprehensive and more responsive product for our customers. 

But this partnership goes beyond just funding. EdenBase has cultivated a thriving roster of tech pioneers that we’re now a part of, giving us access to strategic technology and strategic guidance, networking opportunities and collaborative support. The EdenBase team, full of seasoned professionals and subject matter experts, will work closely with us here at wamo, providing us with investment and mentorship to ensure we maximize growth while staying true to our mission.

We’re reshaping business finances

This is a proud moment for wamo, and the next step of our exciting journey. With this new backing, we’re even more confident in our ability to empower small businesses, support entrepreneurs and help founders to fulfill their potential, tying together the power of technology with the human touch.

I want to thank the smart and passionate team at wamo for the hard work and commitment that has made this possible. I’m also incredibly grateful to our customers, and I’d like to thank you all for your steadfast support. We remain dedicated to serving you as we forge ahead on this next stage. The future is incredibly bright! 

Yours,

Yanki Onen
