A London machine learning tech company has secured multi-million pound investment to grow its international footprint and bolster its research and development capabilities. Shoreditch-based Seldon has raised £7.1m in a Series A funding round in order to develop new offices in both the UK, the US and Asia. Founded in 2014, Seldon specialises in cloud agnostic machine learning deployment, and works in partnership with brands such as Google, Red Hat, IBM and Amazon Web Services. The firm's suite of products aims to enhance machine learning deployment pipelines with explainability, governance and monitoring functions. Co-led by AlbionVC and Cambridge Innovation Capital, the round also saw participation from existing investors Amadeus Capital Partners and Global Brain, with follow-on investment from other existing shareholders.
