The startup, which uses AI to verify identities, has raised more than $200m and grown to over 500 people, generating more than £140m in revenue. Earlier this year, it was acquired by US-based payments company Entrust. During this episode, Kassai shares what he learnt while building the business and explains why he thinks policy decisions are putting the brightest talent off from working in the UK.

Episode 37 is with Lukas May, Head of Policy and Expansion at IsometricThe traditional carbon offset market is riddled with problems. We've seen reporting on this from The Guardian, Bloomberg, and other media outlets. Researchers at CarbonPlan have also done some excellent work exposing just how broken some of these systems really are. As we build a new carbon removal industry, we now have an opportunity to build trust in a high integrity carbon removal market. One company, Isometric, is working to figure that out, building scientific integrity, transparency, and incentive alignment into their business model. The company just launched its own carbon registry this week, and the question is, can the company avoid the same pitfalls of the legacy actors in the traditional carbon offset market?In this episode, Na'im and Lukas discuss:* Isometric's mission and why trust is the central job of scaling carbon removal;* Definitions of the terms standards, methodologies, and protocols;* Ways that Isometric's products improve on incumbent models that exist today;* How Isometric addresses problem around misaligned incentive in the market today;* How Isometric defines quality;* Isometric's approach in developing protocols and partnering with the wider community;* The role of policy in helping build trust and rigor;* Alternatives to countries' building their own methodologiesRelevant Links:* Launch of Isometric Registry* Isometric receives ICROA Conditional Endorsement* Isometric Website* Isometric Registry* Isometric Protocols* Carbon Dioxide Removal Purchase Pilot PrizeAbout LukasLukas May is the Head of Policy and Expansion at Isometric.

Before that he led international expansion at fintech start-up Wise, and he started his career at the UK financial services regulator.About IsometricIsometric is a new kind of registry on a mission to ensure the transition to carbon removal happens responsibly and fast. As carbon markets mature, buyers are rapidly shifting their attention and purchases from low-quality, temporary carbon offsets to high-quality, durable carbon removals. The Isometric Standard sets the world's most stringent set of rules for removing carbon, raising the bar for scientific rigor, transparency, and incentive alignment. The Isometric Registry provides a permanent audit trail for all credits issued by Isometric, allowing the information behind every credit to be reviewed and scrutinized. Isometric was founded in 2022 by CEO Eamon Jubbawy, who previously co-founded Onfido. The company is based in London and New York and has raised over $25 million from Lowercarbon Capital, Plural, and more.This episode was created and published by Na'im Merchant.

The power of lawyers is not only to understand and articulate the legal position, but also to convey a message to key business stakeholders and to drive influence on key risk areas. ·      To be effective as lawyers we need to be more of an airbag than a seatbelt, helping businesses to grow and scale responsibly in an enduring way.·      The power of the network is huge - particularly when trying to solve challenging problems at pace, it can save re-inventing the wheel.Francesca explains what it's like to work at Onfido, an agile, relatively new tech firm compared to Hewlett Packard where she worked as LegalCounsel. She details how she endeavoured to incorporate best practice from HP at Onfido, without slowing their rapid rate of growth. Outside of work Francesca loves to write. She details some of her literary works and the courses she undertook to help write her novels. She also explains how writing outside of work improved her ability as a lawyer, enabling her to be more energised and approach problems in a more creative way. Presented by Scott Brown of Heriot Brown Legal Recruitment.  Follow Heriot Brown:Twitter | LinkedIn |  Facebook | InstagramThis episode of Lessons I Learned in Law is brought to you by Beamery.Beamery is an AI-powered talent platform, designed to hire candidates faster, develop the skills of your workforce, and increase employee retention.Find out more at Beamery.com

Founded in London back in 2012, Onfido has become one of the global leaders in the digital identity verification and authentication services.We caught up with Mike Tuchen, who joined the company almost three years ago after stints as CEO of companies like Rapid7 and Talend, and was brought on board to lead the scale-up and supercharge global growth.Started with merely $30,000 in seed funding a decade ago, Onfido has raised more than $200 million in funding to date, and currently employs more than 600 staff around the globe.According to Tuchen, revenue has reached well over $100 million a year, but getting the multi-national company to cashflow-positivity while maintaining healthy growth figures is one of his priorities.We didn't only talk numbers though; Tuchen also went deep into Onfido's software, its positioning, how and why it uses artificial intelligence in its products, combatting bad actors and deepfakes, the war for talent, the company's recent acquisition of Airside, his take on the UK and European technology ecosystems, and much more.You can also watch the interview directly on YouTube.

In der Rubrik “Investments & Exits” begrüßen wir heute Otto Birnbaum, General Partner von Revent. Otto spricht über die Finanzierungsrunde von ConstellR und Quench.ai sowie den Exit von Opinary und den neuen Fonds von United Ventures. Das deutsche Startup constellr, das intelligente Landwirtschaftsdienste für den Agrarsektor anbietet, hat eine Seed-Finanzierungsrunde abgeschlossen und erhöhte damit den Gesamtbetrag der Seed-Runde auf 17 Millionen Euro. Die Finanzierungsrunde wurde von Karista angeführt, mit Beteiligung von Einstein Industries Ventures und bestehenden Investoren wie FTTF, Lakestar, Vsquared, Amathaon Capital, Natural Ventures, OHB Ventures und EIT Food. Das Unternehmen plant, die Mittel zu nutzen, um den Einsatz seiner Wärmesatelliten zu beschleunigen und seine Aktivitäten in Nordamerika auszuweiten. Die KI-Coaching-Plattform Quench.ai, gegründet von Husayn Kassai, dem Mitbegründer von Onfido, hat in einer Pre-Seed-Finanzierungsrunde 5 Millionen US-Dollar aufgebracht. Unter den Investoren sind Firstminute Capital, Tuesday VC (ehemals CrunchFund), BY Venture Partners, Ada Ventures, Plug and Play Ventures, Notion Capital, IFG, Antler, Ventures Together, Northzone scout und mehr als 50 Gründer. Die Plattform nutzt Künstliche Intelligenz als Coach und bietet den Nutzern geeignete Videos zum Erlernen neuer Fähigkeiten an. Ziel ist es, Probleme wie "Entscheidungsparalyse" und zeitraubende Ablenkungen zu vermeiden. Das Unternehmen plant, mit der Finanzierung sein Team zu erweitern und moderne Lernende, die ihre Fähigkeiten verbessern wollen, anzusprechen.Das indische Werbetechnologieunternehmen Affinity hat das Berliner Startup Opinary übernommen, wobei der Kaufpreis nicht bekannt gegeben wurde, aber geschätzt wird, dass es sich um eine einstellige Millionensumme handelt. Opinary, bekannt für seine Online-Umfragen zu aktuellen Themen, wird durch die Übernahme die Möglichkeit haben, international zu expandieren und neue Produkte von Affinity anzubieten. Die bestehende Geschäftsführung von Opinary bleibt erhalten, während das Unternehmen durch die Unterstützung von Affinity in den USA und Asien sowie in Deutschland und Europa wachsen soll. Die italienische Risikokapitalfirma United Ventures hat den ersten Abschluss ihres neuen Fonds in Höhe von 65 Millionen Euro bekannt gegeben, mit einem Ziel von insgesamt 150 Millionen Euro. Der Fonds wird sich in den nächsten fünf Jahren auf 15 bis 18 europäische Technologieunternehmen im Frühstadium konzentrieren, insbesondere im italienischen Ökosystem.

Ten years ago, identity fraud typically meant people manually forging, but today's threat actors work with purely-digital fakes with an increasingly-advanced toolset including ‘deepfakes' that work even on live video feeds. At the same time, Twitter advertisers have seen billions wiped off their market caps as the platform struggles with its ID verification. On top of the growing scale of digital fraudsters, a surprising amount of businesses are willing to let a small amount of fraud occur. Companies need to carefully plan how to avoid fraud, but more importantly learn from the experience of falling victim to scams.This week, we spoke to Mike Tuchen, CEO of identity tech firm Onfido, to discuss the current threat landscape, how the tech sector can match threatening tech with detection systems, and best practice going forward.

Itxaso Del Palacio, Partner of VC fund Notion Capital joins me on Tech Talks Daily. Notion is a European VC fund in the B2B SaaS and Cloud space with more than $700m in assets under management. Having made 80+ investments to date, the Notion team founded, built, and exited two highly successful SaaS businesses – Star and MessageLabs – and today invests exclusively in exceptional founders with the ambition to build global category leaders. The fund's investments include Go-Cardless, Paddle, Currencycloud, and Tradeshift. Notion is also the founding fund of Included VC, the venture capital fellowship for individuals from diverse and overlooked communities from around the world. But I wanted to learn more about Itxaso's unconventional journey to the VC world, which includes a decade of classical ballet, working on the assembly line at DaimlerChrysler, a Masters in Engineering, and, ultimately, a PhD in Entrepreneurship. Once she turned her hand fully to VC investing, since 2010, she moved to London and has invested in more than a dozen businesses in the last 12 years. She has also taught entrepreneurship to around 2,000 students at University College London and Imperial College. And before joining Notion, she spearheaded the European launch of Microsoft Ventures and led investments in Onfido, Beamery, and Unbabel. In the episode, we discuss why there is no one route to entering the VC industry and how product-led growth will be the key to the expansion, explosion, and even domination of European software companies globally. Itxaso also shares what traits she looks for in founders and what the best founders do to blow away investors beyond their entrepreneurial vision.
