We’re excited to share that CybaVerse has closed its £5 million Series A funding round, co-led by Pembroke VCT and Airbridge Equity Partners with participation from Haatch.

Founded in 2018, CybaVerse is an all-in-one cybersecurity management platform bringing together detection, compliance, testing, and protection for SMEs and Managed Service Providers (MSPs). Its white-labelled SaaS model allows partners to rebrand and resell at speed and scale, giving smaller businesses access to enterprise-grade cyber security.

This latest round will accelerate CybaVerse’s expansion, building out the team, scaling sales and marketing, and continuing to enhance its flagship platform, CybaOps, which automates complex security workflows for SMEs and MSPs.

CybaVerse’s growth story so far is impressive:

  • Revenue grew 180% year-on-year, with 90% customer retention.
  • It recently made the shortlist for CRN Channel Awards 2025: Rising Star Security Vendor of the Year.

Why this matters

Cybersecurity is one of the fastest-growing markets globally, and SMEs remain one of its most underserved segments. As attacks increase in both frequency and sophistication, CybaVerse is redefining how small businesses protect themselves, delivering simple, automated, and affordable solutions through the MSP ecosystem.

Haatch’s continued investment underlines our conviction in CEO, Oliver Spence and his exceptional team. Their blend of technical depth and commercial execution is exactly what we look for in high-growth SaaS founders building infrastructure that powers the future of enterprise.

Why we are excited

"We first backed CybaVerse in 2024 and have watched the team execute brilliantly, growing revenue, expanding their product, and tripling the company’s share price in just over a year. Ollie and the team are building a category-defining platform in one of the fastest-growing sectors in tech. We’re thrilled to double down on our conviction and join an outstanding group of growth-stage investors as CybaVerse continues to scale.” — Jonathan Keeling, Partner at Haatch

When we first backed AIApply in March 2024 through our SEIS fund, we were backing more than just a company; we were backing a thesis and a team. The job search experience is fundamentally broken. Candidates face a fragmented, opaque process that often feels stacked against them. We believed AI could transform this experience, putting the power back in job seekers' hands.
