The skincare brand, formed in 2000, will be bought by the consumer goods company and overseen by corporate venturing unit Unilever Ventures post-acquisition.

Cambridge spin-out Ilumink bought for undisclosed sum by Tracerco.

The advertising commerce platform has secured $7m from backers including research and technology transfer company Innova.

Holztbrinck-affiliated venture firm Holtzbrinck Ventures participated in the round as the customised e-commerce service raised expansion funding.

The payment services provider will invest up to $95,000 to establish joint venture projects with successful applicants.
