MarTech CEOs Place Big Bet on Integrate

PHOENIX, July 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrate, the pioneer and market leader in demand orchestration software – a large and rapidly growing segment of marketing technology – announced today that it secured $8 million in equity capital from new and existing investors to meet customer demand and further enhance its software. The company has now raised $35 million in venture capital since its inception in 2010.

The Series D round was led by new investor Iron Gate Capital and existing investors Foundry Group and Forte Ventures. Also participating were existing investors Comcast Ventures, Liberty Global and new investor Chestnut Street Ventures. Integrate also attracted investment from MarTech luminaries who have collectively created $4.7 billion in shareholder value. This includes: Scott Dorsey, founder and CEO of ExactTarget (acquired by Salesforce); Reggie Bradford, founder and CEO of Vitrue (acquired by Oracle); David Karnstedt, CEO of Efficient Frontier (acquired by Adobe); and Dan Springer, CEO of Responsys (acquired by Oracle). "The participation of such experienced veterans is a clear sign of validation for Integrate," said Dorsey, who invested via High Alpha Capital, a venture studio where he serves as managing partner, backing entrepreneurs building world-class enterprise cloud companies.

Integrate's software tackles the last frontier of optimization in the B2B marketing stack, ensuring demand generation and top-of-funnel marketing programs yield results. "When I founded Integrate, I knew that the marketing technology industry was going through a transformation that would lead to increased automation and the need to scale demand to meet marketing's revenue contribution mandate," said Founder and CEO Jeremy Bloom. "Today, this transformation is only accelerating. The relentless focus B2B marketers must place on building the top of the funnel is driving more value in the sales pipeline. Integrate's latest fundraise ensures we continue to innovate our offering and further invest in our customers' success."

The company is experiencing a rapid expansion in its marquee customer base of enterprise and mid-market organizations, serving over 400 customers including brands such as Dell, Salesforce, Lookout, Iron Mountain and ServiceNow. Integrate's annual recurring subscription revenue nearly tripled this past year, and it generated positive operating cash flow for the past four fiscal quarters.
