🎉 Congratulations to Lakera for raising a $20M Series A funding round to further expand their GenAI security tools! We're proud to double down on our support in this round, which Atomico led and Citi Ventures and Dropbox Ventures participated in. 80% of enterprises are predicted to adopt some form of Generative AI (GenAI) by 2026. However, this rise in GenAI adoption also introduces new cybersecurity risks as it significantly lowers the barrier to entry for hackers and a new generation of AI “sleeper agents”. Traditional cyber tools are unable to protect from such threats, leaving businesses unable to safely adopt AI. Until now. Founded in Zurich in 2021, Lakera addresses this critical gap by providing pioneering, ever-evolving, enterprise-grade AI safety tools for centralized security control. As the world's only real-time GenAI security company, Lakera is in high demand, already attracting attention from over a third of Fortune 500 companies. #EmpoweringGameChangers - Convinced by their expert team and developer-first approach, which allows enterprises to confidently deploy AI models, we led their $10M Seed round last year. Since then, we've witnessed a surge in enterprise GenAI and associated security risks, a challenge Lakera continues to meet. As early investors, redalpine’s Harald, Daniel, and Mira have supported Lakera as they triple their team, expand to the US, and emerge as a leader in this new age of cybersecurity. 👏 Congratulations to David Haber, Mateo Rojas-Carulla, Matthias Kraft, and the entire team!
