Talking point: The 11-person startup’s technology adds AI to the networking process, fielding introductory calls from users and then connecting them to others with shared interests. Boardy claims its introductions have helped clients land customers and investments—including its own latest round, which it says started when a partner at Creandum called in. Boardy’s financing comes just a few months after it announced a US$3-million pre-seed in October 2024. D’Souza said the startup will use the money to keep expanding the network of people it can connect.
