Divido named ‘one to watch’ in revered Seedtable high-growth tech list

LONDON – Thursday 25th June, 2020: Divido, the leading, global whitelabel platform for retail finance, has been lauded in Seedtable’s 111 London Startups to Watch in 2020 list.

Described as an ‘eclectic mix of hyper-growth scaleups, small creative startups and everything in between’, the revered list is a who’s-who of London’s burgeoning, disruptive tech sector.

Nearly a third of those mentioned on the list, a staggering 41 of the 111, are financial-services organisations, with nine of the 41, specifically, tackling the payments market. Healthcare lagged in runner-up position with six mentions, whilst artificial intelligence and augmented reality underpin much of the technology across a series of sectors.

The list is based on public and proprietary data. We look at thousands of different companies in Europe and multiple data points; funding amount, team size, etc, and assign a score to them we
call SeedScore.

Christer Holloman, CEO and Founder, Divido, said: ‘I’m extremely excited that Divido has been recognised amongst so many of its peers in financial services and, specifically, the payments arena, as challenging the status quo.

‘The field of businesses represented is broad, with so many varied sectors tackling problems from fresh angles with the power of technology. It’s heartening to see such creativity and innovation continue to grow out of the UK’s capital, London.’
