BKN301 Extends Series B to £29 Million, Opening a New Chapter of Global Growth and Acquisitions

2025/11/28 08:00

BKN301 Group, a global Fintech Architecture Provider, has announced major milestones marking a new phase in its growth journey: it has secured credit facility from funds and accounts managed by BlackRock, and acquired Planky, a UK-based tech company specialised in AI-driven financial analytics and open banking. The credit facility goes alongside its latest Series B round. Together with the latest Series B, it takes the total amount raised to £29 million.

The new financing will also accelerate BKN301’s roadmap, enabling the company to scale its digital banking architecture platform across EMEA markets. By combining modular digital banking infrastructure with advanced data analytics and machine learning, BKN301 continues its mission to power financial innovation in emerging economies and beyond.

AI-driven evolution: Planky’s integration into BKN301

Through the acquisition of Planky, BKN301 gains a proprietary AI and data analytics engine that will be fully integrated into its digital banking architecture.

Planky’s machine learning models, specialised in real-time financial insights, behavioural scoring, and predictive analytics, will enhance the intelligence and automation of BKN301’s platform.

This integration will enable financial institutions and fintechs using BKN301’s technology to deliver smarter, faster, and more personalised digital banking experiences, while maintaining high compliance and scalability standards.

“This milestone marks a defining moment for BKN301,” said Stiven Muccioli, Founder & CEO of BKN301.
“With the growth financing and Planky’s AI capabilities, we’re accelerating toward our vision of a next-generation fintech infrastructure — one that’s intelligent, open, and designed to empower financial inclusion at scale across emerging markets.”

Strategic momentum and future roadmap

The extended Series B and the acquisition of Planky come as BKN301 continues to expand its presence across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, supporting banks, fintechs, and corporates with an agile, AI-powered infrastructure.

The company’s growth strategy for the next 18 months includes

  • Strengthening its AI and data analytics capabilities across the core platform
  • Expanding strategic partnerships with regional financial institutions
  • Exploring new M&A opportunities to accelerate technological innovation and market reach

“We’re building the rails for the next wave of financial innovation,” added Muccioli. “AI is transforming how financial services operate, and BKN301 is at the forefront — combining intelligence, scalability, and regulatory readiness to help our clients innovate faster.”
