NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Aug 26, 2015) - 7Park Data, a leading provider of data-driven information products to enterprise decision makers worldwide, today announced that it has completed a $3 million Series A round of funding led by Mueller Ventures. The funding represents the first non-founder injection of capital and comes after nine consecutive quarters of profitability, bolstered by 235 percent year-over-year revenue growth in 2014. Since July 2014, 7Park Data has grown its customers by more than 180 percent, due to strong adoption among global businesses in finance and corporate markets. The company also announced today the availability of Traffic Intelligence, which helps businesses understand web and mobile consumer behavior across a range of usage and engagement metrics, powered by a global panel of more than 100 million users.
7Park Data will use this capital to extend proprietary data collection capabilities and enhance its data intelligence platform. Gary Mueller, managing director at Mueller Ventures, and John Connolly, senior advisor to Bain Capital Ventures, will join 7Park Data cofounders Brian Lichtenberger and Alex Nephew on the company's board of directors. The round includes participation from a group of seasoned entrepreneurs and investors with highly relevant industry and growth experience.
"7Park Data excels at providing mission-critical analysis and intelligence to businesses where traditional research firms struggle, not the least of which because 7Park Data has the world's largest panel and the most comprehensive set of real user data," said Gary Mueller, who formerly founded ISI Emerging Markets (now EMIS) and served as chairman and CEO of Institutional Investor. "7Park Data's ability to deliver high-value intelligence from a portfolio of differentiated data sources positions the company as the most accurate and comprehensive--and therefore most useful and valuable--intelligence platform available today. We are thrilled to invest in their vision and aid them as they grow."
