We’re making history, again. project44 closed 2021 with a $420 million investment, setting the record for new capital in a single year for a Chicago-based SaaS company. Co-led by Thoma Bravo, TPG, and Goldman Sachs, the investment values the business at $2.2 billion pre-money. With this funding, customers will get more functionality for greater supply chain resiliency and efficiency, richer data science for better ETAs, broader network coverage from dock to door, enhanced customer success, and more. This latest milestone solidifies our leading role in the #supplychainvisibility space. Thank you to our team, customers, and partners. Here’s to the opportunities that lie ahead!
