The Spanish startup Jeff has raised over €17 million in a Series B financing round, led by All Iron Ventures, Alma Mundi Ventures, and FJLabs, with investors also from companies such as Alibaba, Dropbox, Uber, and Stripe. The round, which took place during COVID-19, follows previous successful financing rounds in which around €18.2 million was secured.
