Irish-based smart kitchen company Fresco has raised €15 million in funding to bring its personalised cooking companion app to more manufacturers and consumers globally. The company offers a platform to connect smart kitchen appliances. The funding will help boost the evolution of the AI Cooking Companion and accelerate its distribution, allowing Fresco to further grow its partnerships with the world’s biggest appliance brands. “The investment is now driving and bringing it to life.”Fresco is tapping into a global smart kitchen appliances market that is expected to reach $60 billion (€52 billion) by 2030. Despite the potential for growth, however, many appliance brands have not yet developed a way to offer personalised cooking experiences at scale.
