To tackle the booming counterfeit market, Ennoventure Inc., an AI-driven brand protection leader, has raised $8.9 million in its Series A funding round, led by Tanglin Venture Partners. The funding, which also includes investment from Fenice Investment Group, will fuel Ennoventure’s ambitious expansion plans in the U.S., UAE, and India. This development comes at a critical time when industries across the globe are facing an unprecedented surge in counterfeit products and intellectual property theft. Ennoventure’s platform is built on a combination of AI and cryptography, allowing brands to embed an invisible digital signature within product packaging. This invisible signature is a game-changer for brands because it enables instant authentication without disrupting the manufacturing process or requiring additional capital investments. The company’s patented technology has already gained traction across sectors such as FMCG, automotive, and pharmaceuticals, where counterfeiting poses severe financial and reputational risks. By harnessing AI for real-time product authentication, Ennoventure’s solution is designed to protect both brands and consumers from fraudulent goods. “Ennoventure is addressing a critical need for effective, scalable brand protection with its innovative, AI-based approach,” said Ahmad Chatila, Chairman of Ennoventure. “This funding round empowers us to expand our footprint and enhance our product offerings to safeguard more brands globally.” The Rising Demand for Anti-Counterfeit Solutions The size of the global trade in counterfeit goods could reach $1.79 trillion by 2030. Industries worldwide are urgently seeking effective anti-counterfeit solutions, with Asia-Pacific emerging as a significant market for product authentication technologies. Ennoventure’s technology is poised to meet this demand with a platform that is both efficient and scalable for large enterprises. Sankalp Gupta, Partner at Tanglin Venture Partners, emphasized Ennoventure’s potential in addressing this market need. “Ennoventure’s AI-driven technology stands out for its seamless integration and scalability. We believe they’re well-positioned to redefine brand protection across multiple sectors.” How Ennoventure’s AI-Based Technology Works Ennoventure’s solution leverages AI and cryptography to create a digital “fingerprint” on product packaging. This invisible marker enables brands to authenticate products in real-time, protecting against counterfeit goods that threaten both revenue and customer trust. The AI system is process-agnostic, meaning it can be applied without changes to existing packaging lines –a critical feature for brands aiming to streamline operations without compromising security. The company’s technology has already proven effective in securing billions of product units, and its platform continues to evolve with advanced AI capabilities. The New Beginning With the Series A investment, Ennoventure plans to enhance its R&D capabilities and drive adoption across high-risk markets. The company’s expansion in the U.S., UAE, and India marks a strategic step forward as it positions itself as a leader in the anti-counterfeit industry. “We’re committed to building innovative solutions that empower brands to tackle counterfeiting,” said Padmakumar Nair, CEO and co-founder of Ennoventure. “With the support of our investors, we’re positioned to drive meaningful change in brand protection.” Key Takeaways Series A Funding Round: Ennoventure raises $8.9 million led by Tanglin Venture Partners, with contributions from Fenice Investment Group.
