Founded in 2017, Synthesia has become a flagship company in the UK’s AI scene. It was last valued at $2.1 billion in January 2025 after a $180 million funding round.

The startup develops digital avatars for corporate clients, helping explain topics like workplace health and safety. Synthesia plans to use the new funds to create interactive AI agents for employee engagement and marketing videos.

Its clients include SAP and Microsoft. Headquartered in London, the company also operates offices in New York, Munich, and Zurich.

Victor Riparbelli, Synthesia’s co-founder and CEO, said: “Synthesia was founded on two core beliefs: first, that AI will bring the cost of content creation down to zero. And secondly, that AI video provides a better, more engaging way for organisations to communicate and learn.

“This funding round is about scaling that vision. We see a rare convergence of two major shifts a technology shift with AI Agents becoming more capable and a market shift where upskilling and internal knowledge sharing have become board-level priorities.

"We intend to build the defining company at that intersection, by combining our know-how in AI video with our ability to build and integrate AI technologies into products and services that solve real business needs.”
