Synthesia, the UK-based AI video platform used by some of the world’s largest enterprises, has raised $200 million in a Series E funding round, valuing the company at $4 billion and cementing its position as one of Europe’s most valuable AI startups.
The round was led by existing investor Google Ventures (GV), with participation from Evantic, the venture fund founded by former Sequoia Capital partner Matt Miller, and Hedosophia. A broad group of existing backers also joined the round, including NVentures, NVIDIA’s venture capital arm, Accel, Kleiner Perkins, New Enterprise Associates (NEA), PSP Growth, Air Street Capital and MMC Ventures.
As part of the transaction, Synthesia will also facilitate an employee secondary sale in partnership with Nasdaq, providing liquidity to long-standing team members while allowing them to retain ownership and participate in the company’s future growth.
Building agentic systems for enterprise learning
Synthesia said the fresh capital will be used to build a category-defining company focused on transforming how organizations create, share and scale knowledge. The platform is increasingly being positioned as a core tool for enterprise learning and development, internal communications, product marketing and sales enablement, supported by agentic AI systems.
UK tech champion with global reach
Synthesia’s growth has also drawn political attention. UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves described the company as a national success story. “Synthesia is a UK success story, creating new jobs and opportunities in this country,” Reeves said.
Founded in 2017, Synthesia is headquartered in London with offices across Europe and the United States. The platform is used by more than 90% of the Fortune 100, 70% of the FTSE 100, and 90% of companies in the CAC 40 and DAX 40 indices, underscoring its deep penetration in global enterprise markets.
