Tide and Monese named in LinkedIn's 'Top 25 UK Startups'

Augmentum portfolio companies Tide and Monese have been named as two of the 25 “hottest UK companies to work for” in 2019.

As the article says; “With the 3rd annual Top Startups ranking, we uncover the young companies commanding professionals’ attention today: the ones that are growing massively, scrambling industries, shifting talent flows around the world and, often, altering how we work and live.

Our editors and data scientists parsed billions of actions generated by LinkedIn’s 645 million members – and looked at four pillars in particular: employee growth; jobseeker interest; member engagement with the company and its employees; and how well these startups pulled talent from our flagship LinkedIn Top Companies list.”
