Celina and her co-founder Emily are launching first with financial services professionals in London, but the problem they're solving is universal, and their solution is designed to scale globally.
If you work in finance and live in London – download ‘Sphere App’ (App Store / Google Play) to browse their upcoming networking events.
Early Traction
With 20+ years of combined experience in financial services, Celina and her co-founder Emily lived these networking inefficiencies first-hand and know how to solve them. Their expertise, paired with strong distribution networks and early adoption, gives them a unique advantage and a clear pathway to ~£10M ARR within 18 months.
Opportunity
They see a clear market gap validated by their traction and a huge opportunity to accelerate growth. They’re therefore opening a £1m SEIS-eligible funding round for select strategic investors to join them in reshaping professional networking globally.
