In October of 2019 Crunchbase raised $30M in Series C financing from OMERS Ventures. Crunchbase is charging forward, focusing more deeply on the analysis of business signals for both private and public companies. Here at the Engineering Team, we have been working on the interesting challenge of detecting these high value business signals from various sources, such as Tweets and news articles. Some examples of important signals include funding rounds, acquisitions, and key leadership hires. Finding these signals the moment they are announced empowers our customers to make well-informed business decisions.
