Keelvar, a Cork, Ireland-based global pioneer of intelligent sourcing and automation solutions, announced that it raised $24 million in Series B funding to simplify and radically improve procurement, the world’s most inefficient trillion-dollar marketplace.
The round was led by 83North, bringing Keelvar’s total capital raised to $43 million. Keelvar’s Series B builds off a period of rapid growth and expansion for the company, which increased its headcount by 200% since the start of 2021 and grew ARR by 113% last year.
Keelvar will leverage the investment to further scale in the United States, where demand for intelligent sourcing solutions is rapidly increasing.
