THE venture investment platform Anthemis, which promotes the transformative power of digital financial services, is backing EV-only broker ZeVie.
Led by CEO Vincent Heilbron, along with experienced leasing executive Rob Whalley, ZeVie says it is committed to green living through the removal of EV ownership barriers.
ZeVie is just one of two start ups to have completed the Anthemis acceleration programme, a sort of Dragons’ Den type of pitch and (hopeful) approval.
Following a recent re-organisation, the business has been re-launched to compete more effectively in the broker sector with its EV-led approach.
The vision is about helping consumers and businesses move from internal combustion engines to greener and cleaner cars through EV leasing. This is the start, though, with a vision to do more, such as providing 360 degree fully sustainable support packages for EV drivers.

The broker reported that it had onboarded several funders and would be expanding its operation base in the near future.
Fellow EV-only broker WeVee has recently applied to Seedrs to crowdfund for further investment.
