The investment fund Marathon Venture Capital announced its exit from the share capital of Lenses.io, which was its first investment.
It was preceded by the announcement of the acquisition of Lenses.io by Celonis, which is one of the most successful enterprise software companies in the world, with a market capitalization of more than $ 11 billion.
Lenses.io was founded in 2016, by Antonios Chalkiopoulos and Christina Daskalaki. Realizing the growing importance of efficient real-time data streaming (DataOps streaming), they created a platform that supports organizations in adopting data streaming technologies such as Apache Kafka without the need for technical knowledge, ensuring easy integration and management, security and compliance. as well as access to real-time data from each employee.
Lenses.io received initial funding of $ 1 million from Marathon Venture Capital in December 2017, while in September 2019 it raised another $ 7.5 million from European fund 83North and Marathon Venture Capital. In a short period of time, the company managed to add to its clientele some of the largest companies in the world, with a number of them being included in the Fortune 100 list. Today, its customers include names such as Daimler, Playtika, Bouygues Telecom, Generali and Schneider Electric, while the demand for its products is constantly increasing, as more and more companies in all sectors are creating digital services with real-time data.
Antonios Chalkiopoulos, CEO and co-founder of Lenses.io said: “We are excited to join forces with Celonis, the world leader in Execution Management. Together we will offer new capabilities for real-time business data processing, governance and security. This acquisition comes as a culmination of the hard and methodical work of the team in recent years. We expect to open dozens of their jobs in Greece in the coming years. A new chapter is opening and we hope to build one of the best enterprise companies of the next decade “.
“We are extremely happy for the success of Lenses.io, which confirms our initial assumption as Marathon Venture Capital that there are several Greek entrepreneurs who create B2B software products that address and star in the global market. “We are excited about the way forward for the Lenses.io team but also about the many new jobs that will be created in the country, as Celonis is leading the significant change in the way companies use data to improve their processes.” noted Panos Papadopoulos, partner of Marathon Venture Capital.
