Top 10 startup and tech funding news for June 19, 2025

Major funding rounds fuel Artificial Intelligence-powered health, finance, and data startups worldwide, with investors backing bold disruption across sectors.

On June 19, 2025, leading venture investors poured funds into startups transforming industries, with Artificial Intelligence-enabled platforms dominating the day´s announcements. The biggest headlines included Ramp´s substantial new round, which lifted the corporate spend-management firm´s valuation into the billions, as well as fresh capital for Tennr to automate healthcare referrals and Mercanis to overhaul procurement with advanced automation.

Ramp, operating out of New York, netted a Series E round that took its Artificial Intelligence-driven finance automation platform to new heights. Its suite allows over 40,000 clients to streamline everything from expense reporting to procurement, boasting multi-billion dollar savings for its users. Founders Fund led this round, joined by Thrive Capital and General Catalyst, reinforcing investor faith in corporate fintech innovation. Simultaneously, healthtech player Tennr secured a significant Series C, led by IVP and supported by Andreessen Horowitz and Lightspeed. Tennr’s platform leverages specialized Artificial Intelligence models so insurers and doctors can efficiently process complex patient referrals, aiming to break through longstanding medical system blockages.

Europe´s funding scene was just as lively. Berlin’s Mercanis raised a notable Series A to expand its “Agentic-AI” procurement suite, automating the entire supplier lifecycle for enterprises. The round was led by Partech and AVP, with support from Speedinvest and Capmont Technology, aiming to position Mercanis as a challenger to traditional procurement systems. Paris-Miami-based Pelico drew fresh strategic funding led by General Catalyst for its supply chain orchestration tools, which help manufacturers like Airbus avoid costly production delays using live, Artificial Intelligence-powered insights. Meanwhile, French startup Sifflet, which prevents compromised Artificial Intelligence deployments by ensuring data quality, closed a Series A backed by EQT Ventures, Mangrove Capital, and Capmont Technology, targeting international expansion and on-the-fly data monitoring.

Additional rounds spotlighted the global scale of today´s funding activity. Luxembourg’s Tadaweb, an open-source intelligence platform amplifying human analyst work with Artificial Intelligence, raised a fresh undisclosed sum to grow beyond Europe. Israel’s Coralogix clinched a sizable Series E led by NewView Capital to proliferate its real-time observability solutions powered by its own Artificial Intelligence agent, Olly. Notable early-stage momentum came from London’s Glyde, which landed a pre-seed round to fuel its borderless currency platform—removing hidden fees for freelancers and businesses. Commure, in San Francisco, captured late-stage growth financing for its Artificial Intelligence platform automating hospital operations, underpinned by a cash injection from General Catalyst’s Customer Value Fund.

Across all deals, investors like Founders Fund, General Catalyst, Partech, Fuel Ventures, and Capmont Technology demonstrated continuing appetite for startups that address acute pain points in finance, health, data pipelines, and beyond. The June 19 snapshot underscores a clear trend: Artificial Intelligence-powered solutions are winning significant capital to reshape the future of operational systems—one funding round at a time.
