A data technology firm is to scale worldwide after securing 拢47 million in funding.
InfoSum, described as the world鈥檚 leading data collaboration platform, helps the likes of ITV and Channel 4 gain insight into their data without causing a breach.
Its approach to customer data collaboration, termed the 鈥榥on-movement of data鈥�, has been validated by leading businesses increasingly focused on privacy, security and the creation of owned customer identity platforms.
Founded in London and now co-headquartered in the US, the company鈥檚 Series B round was financed by Chrysalis Investments and brings the total raised to $90m since inception in 2016.
Since the closing of InfoSum鈥檚 Series A in September 2020, the company has tripled its revenue, doubled its employee base, entered into multiple new markets, and signed more than fifty new customers.聽
