Infoworks.io, the leading software platform provider for agile data engineering, today announced it has closed $25 million in Series C funding led by New Enterprise Associates (NEA), with participation of existing investors Nexus Venture Partners and Centerview Capital Technology. This latest round of financing will be used to scale up the company's go-to-market initiatives to meet market demand.
"Every enterprise understands the urgency of digital transformation and the central role that data plays in the process," said Scott Sandell, Managing General Partner at NEA. "In a world where analytics agility is a key competitive edge and big data expertise is scarce, automation is the clear answer. We believe that Infoworks has developed precisely the solution that enterprises need to establish an agile data foundation for digital transformation. We were impressed by the scale at which Infoworks has been deployed by very large enterprises and are excited to partner with such an extraordinary team on this remarkable opportunity."
The Infoworks platform eliminates the complexity of big data by automating the entire data engineering process, from source to consumption, through a visual, code-free environment that enables organizations to launch new analytics use cases and data driven applications in days instead of months. The company counts some of the world's largest financial, retail, technology, healthcare, oil & gas, pharmaceutical and manufacturing companies in the Fortune 100 and Global Fortune 500 as its customers.
"We are thrilled and honored to join hands with Scott and the NEA team on our journey to build a truly transformative company," said Buno Pati, Executive Chairman of Infoworks. "We are experiencing massive market demand for the Infoworks solution, and this round of financing will help us scale our ability to meet the demand. There is no substitute for being in the right place, at the right time, with the right product, and having NEA lead this round of financing further strengthens our position with the right partner."
