The platform is network-first: each supplier completes one standardised assessment and maintains it across the network in real time, replacing repeated questionnaires with a single, current profile that every connected organisation can see.<\/p>\n<p>As more organisations join, the picture grows sharper for everyone on the network. It says this \u2018active supply chain security\u2019 is a continuous and collaborative way to manage systemic risk, where organisations stop defending alone and begin to \u2018defend as one\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>More than 16,000 organisations now sit on the network, across critical sectors that include financial services, insurance, critical national infrastructure, and both central and regional government.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we started Risk Ledger, third-party risk was something every company managed on its own, and collaboration across supplier ecosystems within sectors was rare,\u201d said Haydn Brooks, CEO and co-founder.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe built the company on one conviction: organisations are stronger when they \u2018defend as one\u2019, sharing intelligence and reducing risk together rather than in isolation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat conviction now connects more than 16,000 organisations. This investment lets us build that vision faster, extending collective defence to more customers, putting AI to work on the manual tasks that consume security teams, and bringing active supply chain security to the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"5n2xyXbHC1\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/businesscloud.co.uk\/news\/700m-backing-for-spotify-founders-ground-breaking-neko-health\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$700m backing for Spotify founder\u2019s ground-breaking Neko Health<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Jonathan Organ, founding partner of Axiom Equity, added: \u201cRisk Ledger is creating a category rather than competing in an old one.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe network it has built is hard to replicate and grows more valuable with every organisation that joins, which is exactly the kind of business we look to back. The team has earned real trust with serious customers, and the product reflects that discipline.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are pleased to lead this round as the final investment from our first fund, and to support Risk Ledger through its next stage of growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adam Lovell of Mercia Ventures added: \u201cWe backed Risk Ledger at Series A because we believed Haydn and the team had identified a fundamentally better way to manage supply chain cyber risk. Three years on, that conviction has only strengthened.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe team, customer base and the quality of the product all speak for themselves.
