Chili publish has secured 3m Euro in a new funding round. The company will use the investment to stimulate the expansion of its Chili publisher online editing software and business worldwide, and in the US specifically.
Chili publish has welcomed new investor PMV, which takes the investment lead, alongside original investment partners Group MC, Pamica and Volta Ventures.
Chili publisher - which turns original designs into Smart Templates - safeguards brand guidelines while allowing users to alter variable elements dynamically. The software is available as a SaaS solution, runs entirely in the browser. It also integrates with various third-party partners to enable marketers, brands, and printers to offer users a self-service platform to produce online and offline graphics.
Kevin Goeminne, CEO at Chili publish, said: “Over the last 12 months, we managed to make Smart Templatisation dynamic and available as a SaaS. The future of graphics is booming and now is the time to move better and faster in the US. This latest funding, led by PMV, will speed up our market outreach and propel our solution development roadmap.”
Roald Borré, group manager venture capital and head of equity Investments PMV, added: “Market and business digitisation has sped up dramatically, forcing companies to invest in smart technology that will help them optimise their go-to-market. PMV recognises the technological, creative, and long-term potential of Chili publisher. We’re excited to lead this investment round, alongside our respected partner investors, to experience first-hand how smart and dynamic templatisation will help companies reach the next level in their graphic creation process.”
