Collibra, a NYC-based data governance software for business users, closed $50m Series C financing.
The round was led by Iconiq Capital with participation from Battery Ventures and return backers Dawn Capital, Index Ventures and Newion Investments. In conjunction with the funding, Matt Jacobson, General Partner at Iconiq, will join Collibra’s board of directors while Battery General Partner Dharmesh Thakker will join the board as an observer.
The company, which has secured more than $75m in venture funding, intends to use the funds to continue to expand operations.
