Nauta leads $1.6m funding round for Holded

The company will use the fresh capital to improve and speed up its product development, and bolster its internationalisation and expansion into new markets.

The GP is deploying capital from its Nauta IV fund, which held a final close at the beginning of 2017 on €155m, exceeding its target. The fund mainly invests in European companies and occasionally in US businesses that specialise in data analytics, business intelligence, cybersecurity and marketing technology. The vehicle deploys equity tickets between €1-3m and plans to invest in approximately 25 companies in total, having already backed 12 businesses, Unquote understands.
