OPPORTUNI's mission is to enable SMEs seeking new growth to win public sector contracts.
30% female employees
With the UK Government spending £1 in every £3 with businesses, many companies are actively bidding for contracts with organisations such as the Local Council, NHS, and Housing Associations. OPPORTUNI is a UK-based startup that simplifies this process and enables SMEs to win public sector contracts, helping to significantly grow their businesses. The company covers a range of industries from construction, IT, and healthcare through to education and training.
OPPORTUNI uses AI and machine learning to match SMEs with a selection of winnable contracts from public bodies. Moreover, OPPORTUNI also provides these businesses with services that will help them maximize their chances of winning, for example the ability to hire professional bid writers.
Although they are an early-stage startup, OPPORTUNI already count over 6,000 businesses among their clients. They have recently raised £1m, which will be invested in developing their technology and increasing their customer base.
