Our take

Valdera delivers an AI-driven sourcing platform for chemicals and raw materials. As geopolitical uncertainty and climate risk make supply chains more and more volatile, the company's platform is here to help businesses create more robust and resilient supplier networks.

The platform combines Valdera's own AI technology with real-time market data to speed up the discovery and qualification of suppliers, as well as managing relationships with those suppliers. Unlike other platforms, businesses need not consider one prospect at a time - instead being able to consider the bigger picture and hence make smarter decisions.

It's a valuable proposition, which is why it's no surprise Valdera has raised significant funding. This will help accelerate growth for a company that already boasts an expanding roster of customers that includes some of the world's largest manufacturers and household beauty names.
