Analytics company Dataminr secures $85M to fund growth
Dataminr, a data analytics company, has raised $85 million in a combination of convertible financing and credit.
“The new capital will allow Dataminr to accelerate its growth trajectory, [and] provide investors with a discount to the IPO price or subsequent round of financing,” CEO Ted Bailey told TechCrunch. Bailey added that the new tranche, which was led by security-focused VC NightDragon and HSBC, is “pre-IPO convertible financing” and doesn’t set a valuation.
