(1) Work management software company secures investment to enable customers in North America, APAC and European markets to simplify their techstack and eliminate distractions Scoro, an award-winning work management software for professional service businesses, has closed a $16.4 million Series B funding round led by Kennet Partners. Additional investors include Columbia Lake Partners, Inventure, Livonia Partners and Tera Ventures. The investment will fuel continued global expansion and is supported by new French and Spanish versions of the software. "Even before Covid-19 hit, most professional service businesses used as many as a dozen different platforms daily," said Scoro's Founder and CEO, Fred Krieger. "However, teams now realise that constantly switching between tools harms productivity and results in lost data and duplicated work. In many ways, these tools became weapons of mass distraction. We're proud to have the support of Kennet Partners and other investors as we help businesses identify and remove these weapons of mass distraction with our end-to-end work management software."
