KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 30 (Bernama) -- Data governance and catalogue software leader Collibra has raised $100 million in series E funding at a post-money valuation of more than $1 billion, bringing the company’s total venture funding to $233 million (US$ 1.00 = RM 4.11).
A statement said that Alphabet’s growth equity investment fund CapitalG led the round, with participation from existing investors ICONIQ Capital, Index Ventures, Dawn Capital and Battery Ventures. The investment is expected to be used to fund the expansion of the product portfolio and to accelerate growth across the business. Collibra plans to extend its artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities both within its cloud-native platform — building more automation into its smart catalogue product — and in its support of data science teams for their own advanced analytics initiatives. “This investment is a testament to Collibra’s leadership and our ability to help customers transform their market proposition through data-driven insight,” said chief executive officer and co-founder of Collibra, Felix Van de Maele. “With this latest round, we are well-positioned to leverage our heritage in understanding data to help our customers utilise the most cutting-edge innovation to power their digital transformation journeys,” he added. More than 300 global customers in industries ranging from financial services to healthcare, retail and technology have leveraged on Collibra’s platform to bolster their data-driven digital transformations.

Sample shipments will start in February while volume production will start in October, a statement said. The series include TC9562AXBG, which offers more interfaces than Toshiba’s current bridge ICs; TC9562BXBG which supports Ethernet TSN and Ethernet AVB; and TC9562XBG, which offers simpler IC configuration than current products. More and more road vehicles have on-board connectivity, equipping them with internet and cellular access, and allowing information to be shared among on-board systems and devices and with external systems and services. These developments require more complex automotive communication systems supported by reliable transmission standards with real-time data delivery. The Ethernet TSN standard was developed expressly to meet these needs. In addition, the Ethernet AVB specification offers real-time reliable data transmission and is increasingly used in vehicles. Toshiba is among the leading general devices companies, offering customers and business partners outstanding solutions in discrete semiconductors, system LSIs and HDD.
