Firstbound secures £83k to support UK veteran entrepreneurs

Firstbound Limited has raised £83k in a funding round that values the company at an estimated £583k. Based in London, the firm operates an integrated platform designed to provide investor readiness guidance, mentoring, and content for UK armed forces veterans. The service offers a private community where founders access training, accountability, and introductions to independent capital networks.

Incorporated in February, the business focuses on bridging the gap between military service and entrepreneurship by providing a structured pathway that career transition programmes often lack. The offering includes partner services and events aimed at supporting former service members from early validation through to growth. The company has set a measurable goal to help launch 500 new veteran-founded businesses over the next five years.

The software development company currently operates with a team of two employees according to its LinkedIn profile. Documentation for this capital increase was filed in September.
