Company description

The business, which spun out of the University of Cambridge, has developed tools to monitor the web to discover real-time political risks. It is a member of the PaCCS Academic Marketplace. It is now focused on capturing hidden economic insights that exist in online data, giving clients a comprehensive overview of what is changing in the world and an unparalleled ability to unearth leading indicators and opportunities.

Cytora is developing an API and analytics platform that gathers and analyses data about global risks (such as war, terrorism, social unrest, etc.).

Project impact

When we launched the PaCCS Academic Marketplace in March 2015, Cytora won the mock "Dragon's Den" that we ran (giving our members the opportunity to pitch for funds from experienced fund-managers). In January 2017, Cytora secured £2.4m of real investment, in a Series A funding round led by Parkwalk with participation from Cambridge Enterprise, iLexIR and a high-profile group of angels.
