Pivot, a new procurement software company, secures $21.6 million in funding shortly after its inception.
French startup Pivot is an interesting startup story as it is scaling at a rapid pace even though startup investments are down in Europe.
After raising a $5.3 million pre-seed round in April (€5 million), the company worked on the first iteration of its procurement tool over the summer.
And feedback has been so great that Pivot is raising another $21.6 million (€20 million) in a new Series A round from its existing investors — and in particular Visionaries, Emblem, Anamcara and Oliver Samwer.
I already wrote a lengthy description of Pivot, so I also encourage you to read my previous article on the startup.
But in short, Pivot is a modern spend management solution that supposedly works better than Oracle NetSuite’s procurement component or Coupa.
