Verto Analytics Gains $16 Million in Latest Funding Boost

Verto Analytics Will Leverage This Third Significant Venture Round to Expand the Commercial Rollout of Its Behavioral Analytics Research Platform in the US and Europe

Verto Analytics Inc., a behavioral analytics platform based in Helsinki and New York City, announced it has successfully completed its new growth round of $16 million. The round was completed over the past 18 months in several tranches, and formally closed before the end of December 2019.

This latest growth round is Verto’s third significant round of funding, following the seed round in 2014, and the Series A round in 2016.

Verto’s earlier venture rounds were used to boost Verto’s product development and panel build-out. This new round is focused on accelerating commercial rollout of new solutions (both syndicated and custom), and making strategic improvements to Verto’s excellent customer service.

Verto Analytics founder, Dr. Hannu Verkasalo, says this funding milestone is a testament to how his valued team has collaborated to meet the needs of a growing market. “I’m very proud of the talented and dedicated team we’ve built at Verto Analytics,” he says. “Working with the top clients in the world, our team has changed the way behavioral passive measurement data can be used to fill in gaps on consumer journeys, derive educated and accurate models around competitive intelligence, and be used as part of more traditional survey data to bring the traditional market research to the next decade.” Last year Verto launched its new behavioral research platform, which, for the first time, makes various integration options available to market research companies as well as end-customers in the technology, media, e-commerce, Internet, and app/gaming domains.

“This new round gives us added momentum to strengthen our commercial operations and continue our R&D,” says Pat Brennan, president of US operations at Verto Analytics. “We’ll leverage key customer feedback to add new features to our market research solutions.”
