Recent months have seen a consistent rise in the investment of startups within the accounting field, largely propelled by artificial intelligence (AI) applications.
This investment trend shows no signs of waning, with several substantial financings emerging in the recent weeks.
Highlighting this trend, Ageras, an accounting platform from Copenhagen, secured an impressive $88 million in a growth financing round. The round was spearheaded by Investcorp.
Preceding this event was FloQast’s announcement of its $100 million Series E funding round, orchestrated by Iconiq Growth. Additionally, audit automation startup DataSnipper closed a round of the same amount, led by Index Ventures, just a few weeks earlier.
Accounting for the year thus far, ventures in the accounting domain have attracted over $450 million in venture capital according to Crunchbase data.
