Tech Talk Radio: Covid-busting fundraises

It’s back to school this week, and what better way to get back into the swing of things than with EG’s tech and global reporter Lucy Alderson, who spoke with Irish proptech start-up Offr’s co-founder and chief executive Robert Hoban to discuss the company’s Covid-busting fundraise.

The start-up recently secured nearly €3m in its latest seed fundraise led by Barclays – much higher than its original target of €1m. In a climate where proptech companies are finding it increasingly difficult to raise capital while investors scale back deals, Hoban shares his own experience and tips for start-ups looking to fundraise in the midst of a pandemic.

Hoban also shares more details about Offr’s plans to expand into the UK and Australia, and reveals which other countries the company is planning to potentially launch into in the future.
