Real‐Time Big Data Analytics Market Boosted by Investor Support for Space‐Time Insight’s Situational Intelligence Solution
Arlington, TX, September 19, 2012 – At Utility Analytics Week, Space‐Time Insight, the leading provider of
next‐generation situational intelligence solutions, today announced that it has raised $14 million in Series
B funding to speed adoption of the company’s innovative geospatial and visual analytics software. Three
investment funds focused on emerging companies active in the energy sector, EnerTech Capital, Novus
Energy Partners, and ClearSky Power & Technology Fund, join existing investors, Opus Capital Ventures
and Start Up Farms International (SUFI), in this round of financing.
“We are delighted to have such an accomplished group of investors backing Space‐Time Insight as we
strive to meet the rapidly growing demand for situational intelligence,” said Space‐Time Insight CEO, Rob
Schilling. “The big data analytics solutions we have successfully deployed at some of the largest energy
companies around the world are proof that we can help businesses not only gain unique insights into vast
quantities of disparate data, but also use that data intelligently, dramatically improving the speed and
accuracy of operational decisions.”
Space‐Time Insight’s award‐winning software uniquely helps its customers reduce risk, improve service
reliability, and maximize shareholder value through sophisticated visualization and analysis of massive
volumes of diverse real‐time and historical data. The proceeds of Space‐Time Insight’s second round of
financing will be used to enhance the company’s suite of situational intelligence solutions and expand its
sales and marketing activities in the energy and other capital asset intensive industry sectors.
“As an early investor in Space‐Time Insight, it’s been gratifying to see the progress the company has
made—both in product development and in the success of their sales and marketing efforts,” said Gill
Cogan, General Partner at Opus Capital Ventures. “As increasing volumes of data challenge businesses
across a range of industries, Space‐Time Insight’s innovative visual approach to analysis is a differentiator,
especially in situations where users need to process, understand and make decisions on a lot of disparate
information as quickly as possible. We look forward to seeing what this next stage of investment will
bring.”
“We are delighted to be part of the next chapter of Space‐Time Insight’s growth, and to support a clear
leader in situational intelligence for the energy sector,” said Tucker Twitmyer, Managing Director at
EnerTech Capital. “We believe strongly in the management team and that the solutions being created by
Space‐Time Insight deliver unique real‐time insight into the tsunami of data faced by utilities and other
leading businesses in the energy sector.”
With this round of funding, Space‐Time Insight also adds Novus Founding Partner, Martin Aares, ClearSky
