Tencent led the Series A financing to support team expansion and international growth at SenSat.
"Using AI-powered digital twin technology to replicate the real world in a digital capacity is the next step towards using data to make better decisions, not only in Infrastructure but in how we impact the world as people. SenSat has scaled rapidly in the past year, and we have big plans for this first major round of investment, adding to our world-class AI expertise, and enabling fresh partnerships with innovators in a range of different fields. With Tencent, we share similar ambitions about the impact of enterprise internet on laggard industries and how that can lead to us operating our world more sustainably."
The Series A round was led by Tencent with participation from Graphene Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, Rakuten, Fidelity, and Vickers Venture Partners.
"Today’s announcement amplifies our commitment to global markets, whilst fuelling our industry momentum as we continue to build Everledger. Having this strong investor cohort join us at this stage in our development is both validation of the innovation we’ve displayed to date, and a statement of future intent. They will support us in bringing more visibility to good business practices in industries that impact millions, if not billions of people in developing countries."
