Real-time collaborative logistics platform Turvo raises $60M Series B funding
The company, which offers a cloud-based platform for the supply chain, now has investment totalling nearly $100 million.
Turvo's Series B funding was led by Mubadala Ventures, a $400 million venture fund that also oversees and manages Mubadala's $15 billion commitment to the SoftBank Vision Fund. Ibrahim Ajami, Head of Mubadala Ventures, will join the Turvo board.
Turvo also added new investors G2VP and Next47, the Siemens-backed global venture firm.
Turvo offers a cloud-based platform for multiple users in the supply chain with the aim of offering improved tracking, collaboration and visibility through the Internet of Things (IoT) and analytics software.
"This round of funding speaks to the power of our software platform and the exponential growth we are seeing in the business," said Eric Gilmore, CEO and co-founder of Turvo. "We are excited to partner with world-class investors like Mubadala to bring a truly revolutionary platform to a multitrillion-dollar global industry desperate for change."
"Turvo is a unique example of powerful technology being applied to a critical business challenge," said Mr. Ajami. "We're very excited to lead the investment and bring Mubadala's global ecosystem and assets to help Turvo transform a massive industry."
Existing investors Activant Capital, Felicis Ventures, Future Shape (Tony Fadell's investment and advisory firm), and Upside Partnership continued their support of Turvo's success by making additional investments in the Series B round.
