Knight Corporate Finance is delighted to have advised Liverpool-based competitor and human capital intelligence specialist Deltabase on a strategic investment led by River Capital’s EIS AI Fund ‘fund:AI’, with participation from Manchester-based AI investor EHE Ventures.
Founded in 2019 by experienced consultants Phil Spratt, Alastair Whiteley, and David Rowe, Deltabase provides deep data insights to support HR decision-makers and advisory firms in measuring and benchmarking company culture, talent, and workforce composition – critical variables in modern workplace performance and M&A transactions.
Having relocated its headquarters from London to Liverpool, Deltabase represents another significant inward investment into the Liverpool City Region’s rapidly expanding tech and digital ecosystem.
The Knight Corporate Finance team was led by Alex Stewart, Director, with support from Senior Corporate Finance Manager, Greg Rawsthorne. Together, they provided strategic guidance and end-to-end corporate finance advice throughout the transaction, ensuring the capital raise was structured to unlock Deltabase’s next phase of growth.
Deltabase are looking to expand their data science and engineering teams, accelerate product development, and meet growing enterprise demand with their funding. The investment underscores River Capital’s commitment to supporting high-growth, AI-powered businesses driving innovation across the North of England.
Alex Stewart, Director at Knight Corporate Finance, commented:
“Deltabase is a fantastic example of how data and AI transform the way businesses understand and leverage their people. It’s been a privilege to work with Deltabase and River Capital, bringing together a shared vision between founders and investors as they enter the next stage of their growth journey.”
Knight Corporate Finance is proud to have supported Deltabase’s leadership team through this milestone investment and continues to champion the growth of ambitious technology and AI businesses across the region.
