An AI startup co-founded by Steven Bartlett’s former business partner, Oliver Yonchev, has joined the London Stock Exchange.

The LSE welcomed Potentially AI PLC to its market close ceremony following the admission of its ordinary shares to trading on AIM via a £10m reverse takeover.

Potentially’s market capitalisation upon admission was approximately £20m, having raised gross proceeds of approximately £5m through a placing, subscription and WRAP Retail Offer.

Co-founder Yonchev, who previously co-founded Flight Story with Dragons’ Den star Steven Bartlett and served as CEO before exiting in 2024, said: “We’re proud to have raised growth capital from the City of London. By joining AIM, we hope Potentially will become a standard-bearer for tech companies in the UK to reconsider the opportunities a London stock market listing brings.

“Almost a year ago, Potentially was an idea and a bet on the future.

“Today, we began trading on the London Stock Exchange.”
