Inventya Ltd is delighted to announce our strategic partnership with Swoop Funding.  This partnership will allow us to combine our expertise to support each other’s clients and broaden our proposition to further support small businesses with critical services.

Since its launch in May 2018, Swoop has helped thousands of businesses find millions of pounds in funding. Swoop gives every customer access to the best deals on the market from finance solutions to money-saving deals on banking and FX. Swoop gives business owners control with an easy-to-use platform that offers simple and clear comparisons of financial products and services.

Inventya is a dynamic innovation management consultancy supporting the growth of their clients through the development and commercialisation of innovative products and services. They strategically link market, technology, and finance through a range of tailored services that are guaranteed to deliver impact and added value to their clients. With a presence in the UK, Ireland, and India, Inventya is committed to delivering tangible success and social, environmental and economic impact.

Inventya and Swoop make a great partnership as both are committed to providing funding, saving and growth support for ambitious and innovative businesses.

As a grants partner, Inventya will be delivering a suite of innovation services to Swoop clients. Through this partnership, a wide range of Inventya clients will benefit from accessing Swoop's network of equity investors and debt providers. Both organisations will focus on raising awareness among the SME community about R&D Tax Credits and Innovation Grants.

The R&D tax landscape is changing and R&D incentives regimes around the world continue to evolve at pace. Several countries are acknowledging the importance of tax incentives in supporting innovation, establishing new industries, and growing knowledge economies. Evermore opportunities are available for companies to access government grants to support R&D funding, which de-risks step-change innovation projects and makes the impossible possible. This joint support will help both Inventya and Swoop clients to accelerate their businesses growth.

Aldo De Leonibus, CEO at Inventya, says: "Since the inception of Inventya, we have designed innovative offerings over the years to support the commercialization and growth journey of companies. We are thankful for this partnership with Swoop and believe this will have a significant impact on the SME community looking to raise funding and finance in the current times.”

Andrea Reynolds, CEO at Swoop, says “We make sure that every partnership we make brings something valuable to SMEs and our customers. With Inventya, we are helping even more founders understand how they can access grant funding or free up money from the tax system.”
