FloatWind manufactures mass-produced floating offshore wind turbines. It seeks to disrupt the £20 billion offshore wind energy market. The company argues that conventional offshore wind farms, installed at sea, use expensive and slow installation methods that are also dangerous to the marine environment. It further stresses that the high cost of installation is often borne by the consumer. FloatWind asserts that its business model is different. The company claims to build its products on land and then floats its ready-to-float turbines out to sea. The company points out that this reduces environmental damage, substantially reduces costs, and makes offshore wind energy cheaper. FloatWind was selected for a 6-month UK Innovate Edge business mentoring programme and appeared for SetSquared Business Mentoring Seminar in May 2021. The company has 3,000+ followers on LinkedIn. FloatWind states it will use the investment for product development, expanding its team, IP protection, promoting marketing and PR, and boosting its manufacturing capabilities.

Peerport Limited (trading as MultiISA) is targeting the multi-million-pound market and claims to offer a holistic approach to Individual Savings Account (ISA) management. The company asserts that traditional ISA managers don’t give users enough flexibility with their investment choices. Current ISA rules restrict investors to only one ISA of each type per tax year. This impedes the investors’ ability to build a diversified IFISA portfolio. Peerport argues that its portal offers investors the freedom to operate multiple accounts like Innovative Finance ISA (IFISA), Cash ISA, and Stocks & Shares ISA under a single ISA management platform. The company will use the investment to finalise the build-out of its end to end platform, fund its office space, manage marketing costs, oversee staffing costs, pay regulatory fees and supervise working capital.
