About Elliptic

Cryptoassets are fast becoming part of the mainstream financial ecosystem and are providing the foundation for a new, decentralised financial system.

Elliptic is driving development and innovation in cryptoasset, helping crypto businesses and financial institutions to grow, and offering protection as new blockchains emerge and regulations evolve.

Elliptic monitors 98% of all cryptoasset trading volume, screens more than $1bn of transactions each week and has collected more than 100 billion cryptoasset data points.

Having worked for regulated financial institutions, Elliptic’s founders understood the cryptoasset industry would have to operate within financial crime regulatory frameworks to reach its full potential.

This led to the creation of the world’s first compliance tools based on blockchain analytics, in 2015.

Today, Elliptic provides: crypto investigations, wallet screenings, asset coverage, transaction monitoring, holistic screening through the entire crypto ecosystem, and nuanced, risk-based virtual asset service provider screening.

About graze

Convenience is at the forefront of Graze – the snack delivery business conceived by Graham, a founder of LoveFilm.

Like the DVD delivery service, Graze allows customers to order products online, where they can tailor their preferences and rate products to personalise the boxes they receive by post.

They can choose a subscription box, snooze their box if they’re going on holiday and stock up on favourite items.

The unique offering, smart marketing and obsessive commitment to customer satisfaction have led to millions of healthy eating customers.

The Graze team believes the healthy choice shouldn't mean compromising on taste. It’s rewriting the snacking rulebook for healthy people who care about the planet.

They've been pushing the boundaries of snacking, looking for bigger and better ways to graze since starting out in 2008. In the early days, they sent fresh fruit through the post – something that had never been done before.

Ever since, the company has listened to customers and used the best ingredients they can find to create delicious snacks people can feel great about eating.

About Permutive

User privacy is resetting the ad industry. GDPR has made handling consumer information complicated and created regulatory risk for countless companies.

Permutive has addressed a gap in the market by safeguarding users and companies’ revenue in turn – so businesses stay out of crisis mode and in control of their fate.

Its privacy-safe infrastructure helps publishers and advertisers reach audiences safely and in the moment, and keep control of their first-party data.

Permutive has ended use of third-party cookies and exposed user IDs for the good of its customers. Its clients have activated 100% of their audience while fully safeguarding them from privacy risks and industry change.

Permutive customers can transform any identifier they work with into privacy-safe formats for matching through to activation – all without cloud limitations. This means maximum storage, accelerated processing and minimised latency for immediate insights and audience targeting.

It pays to understand your audience, but you don’t need to identify everyone in it. Permutive has set out to help its users earn audiences’ trust – protecting the relationships between publishers and their users.

About Quit Genius

Quit Genius is the world's first digital clinic for treating nicotine, alcohol and opioid addictions.

The company formed in 2017 to prevent health problems before they arise by providing more effective addiction treatments.

It’s estimated that 40% of all cancers are linked to smoking tobacco. There are companies and treatments out there attempting to tackle the problem. But of current solutions, many have less than 1% usage rates. They’re mostly generic and phone-call based, and achieve quit rates of about 20%.

Quit Genius set out to change this and has since also applied its successful programme to alcohol and opioids. It replaces traditional telephone coaching with an entirely virtual service, including a personalised app, breath sensors and urine samples, and a dedicated counsellor.

The team has demonstrated a 53% quit rate for people using the app. This compares with the gold standard of one-to-one therapy at 27%.

Quit Genius is empowering people to overcome addictions. The aim is to free 100 million people from addictions that interfere with their lives, damage their health and, for some, cause unnecessary premature death.
