The Irish Strategic Investment Fund (ISIF) has invested €19m in a €38m funding round for Ireland- and US-based IT management and monitoring software business Kaseya.

Kaseya is majority-owned by Insight Venture Partners and the latest transaction "further strengthens" its relationship with the tech-focused GP, according to a statement. Insight first invested in the business in June 2013.
