LegalTech Summize has completed a £40 million funding and reinvestment round to accelerate global expansion.

The Manchester-headquartered scaleup is an AI-powered contract lifecycle management provider with a growing presence in the United States.

It has offices in Boston and San Diego, and a new headquarters location in Manchester.

Alongside Maven Capital Partners, new investors Kennet Partners and Federated Hermes Private Equity, and existing investor YFM Equity Partners, also participated in the round. 

The transaction has enabled Maven to deliver a profitable partial realisation for its VCT investors of 3.7x the original investment, which includes the value of a retained equity stake.
