GIM Raises £15 Million in Series A Funding
The round was co-led by a leading U.S. venture capital firm and Hony Capital as GIM moves AI-driven strategies into live market validation.
On Thursday, July 9, 2026, Grace Investment Machine announced the close of its US$20 million Series A financing to build agentic systems for capital markets.
This financing marks GIM's third funding round within its first year, co-led by a leading US venture capital firm and Hony Capital, with participation from IDG Capital and Monolith Capital.
GIM is advancing foundation models and multi-agent systems, with its flagship CogAlpha paper accepted to the ACL 2026 conference with an oral recommendation.
Founder and CEO Jiahao Xu described the firm's approach as a 'Visionary Machine,' focusing on autonomous hypothesis generation while validating AI-driven products across multiple asset classes.
Pursuing a vision called 'Shared Prosperity,' GIM aims to build products ranging from institutional strategies to individual-accessible vehicles to democratize self-evolving intelligence as a widely held asset.
