At the awards ceremony, held to celebrate the region’s most ambitious and high-growth businesses, Hippo was named Medium Business of the Year and also took home the award for Exit of the Year, recognising both the company’s outstanding growth journey and successful transition following GCP’s investment. GCP was also recognised by the BVCA for its role in supporting Hippo throughout the investment partnership, helping to scale the business.

“We are thrilled to see Hippo’s achievements recognised at the BVCA Vision 2025 Awards. It was a privilege to partner with such a talented and ambitious team, and their success is a testament to the power of sustainable growth and innovation. We’re proud to have supported them on their journey and look forward to watching their continued success.” Alex Thomson, Partner
