The funding will enable Supermetrics to build on its success by expanding its capabilities to data warehousing, enabling marketers to store larger amounts of historic data, as well as bigger overall data sets, and use them to inform decisions.

By GlobalData“Many of our customers are struggling with growing amounts of data and data sources they need to integrate,” said Mikael Thuneberg, chief executive and founder of Supermetrics.
“Data warehousing would solve many of their problems, but it has not been as accessible as it could be for the masses. We are changing that with our Supermetrics for BigQuery product and this funding will accelerate our ability to bring data warehousing to a much wider audience.”
In addition the company plans to expand further globally, focusing on Latin America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, as well as develop tools for other data-focused sectors, including HR and finance.
These combined plans have drawn considerable support from investors.
“We were impressed to see how Supermetrics has grown bottom-up by building a product that over half a million marketers love to use,” said Alex Lim, partner at IVP.
“Supermetrics was born out of Mikael’s frustration with existing tools – a frustration shared by marketers globally. In the future, we believe that Supermetrics can become the standard for accessing API data for all non-technical users, enabling data-driven decision making across entire organisations.”
