Today we announced that we closed a new round of funding from some of the top investors in Chicago. We raised $14.3 million from new and existing investors including Huizenga Capital Management which led the round, MK Capital, Pritzker Group Venture Capital and Merrick Ventures.

The fact that we’ve had such strong support from the Windy City has been an important part of Eved’s story. The additional funding will be used to further accelerate our sales trajectory, support our awesome roster of marquee clients with a continued focus on product and service quality, and ramp up hiring efforts. We also welcomed new members to our Board of Directors.

Building a great B2B software company here in Chicago has always been a priority of mine, and having the support of investors who are aligned with our company values is one of the keys to our success thus far. Obviously, we want to maximize shareholder value, but it’s also important to build the kind of company that our clients and employees are proud to work with. These Midwest investors understand the importance of cultivating such a company, and they share the same entrepreneurial passion that sparked the creation of Eved.

Thank you to our amazing investors, board of directors, advisors, employees and our customers and partners. We’re more than ready to create our own “Built in Chicago by Chicago” success story and feed our local technology ecosystem. The headcount in our Chicago office is set to more than double this year. How ‘bout you join us?
