ALTANA NEWWWW

Company Overview

Altana leverages artificial intelligence to map global supply chains, bringing various sources of public and private data together to help make global trade safe, lawful and resilient.  ​ 

How did we work with Altana? ​ 

Through our funds of funds approach, we indirectly invested in Altana, who are now a unicorn and funded a series of work programmes aimed at testing and trialling Altana’s capabilities for potential application within UK Government. ​ 

What was the impact? ​ 

The work programme delivered substantial time savings in mapping global supply chains while providing deeper insights than previously achievable. As a result of the funding we provided to Altana, the capability was directly procured by Department for Business and Trade’s Global Supply Chains Intelligence Programme (GSCIP). 

At this point, GSCIP is providing the UK with world-leading AI/Machine learning capability in supply chain mapping.
