Sendr eyeing growth after £250,000 investment

A tech-based marketing support firm is eyeing growth after securing £250,000 support.

Sendr has been backed by British Business Bank’s South West Investment Fund.

Bosses at the Devon-based company say the cash will boost product development and market expansion, and help the business “achieve the interim growth needed to unlock further funding opportunities”.

Founded in 2023 by Dave Cannell and John Bromley, the Exeter-headquartered firm harnesses artificial intelligence to create personalised, short-form video marketing content.

Dave, Sendr co-founder and chief executive, said: “This funding is a pivotal step in our journey to redefine client engagement through innovative technology. 

“The backing provides finance and support that will help propel Sendr forward.”

Matt Browning, investment manager at The FSE Group, which operates as fund manager for the South West Investment Fund, added: “Sendr presents a compelling investment opportunity. 

“We are excited to work with this dynamic business as it continues to grow and disrupt the market with its personalised video solutions.”

The South West Investment Fund is overseen by British Business Bank and offers loans, debt finance and equity investment to smaller firms across Bristol, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, Devon, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Somerset and Wiltshire.

Paul Jones, British Business Bank senior investment manager, said: “Sendr is among a growing number of South West businesses embracing the power of artificial intelligence to transform their client offer.”
