UK Startups and Innovation: Risk Ledger raises £24m, no state moneyBackground
Risk Ledger closed a £24m Series B funding round on Wednesday 15 July 2026, led by Axiom Equity with Mercia Ventures participating. No sovereign fund or state-backed vehicle featured on the cap table.
The London company builds software that maps third-party and supply-chain risk for large buyers, letting procurement and security teams assess suppliers before signing contracts. It operates in the crowded but growing UK cyber-risk and compliance-technology market.
The round demonstrates that private venture capital continues to back UK risk-technology start-ups without state co-investment, a contrast to funding models elsewhere in the sector that lean on public money to de-risk early rounds.
