Satellier, construction industry service co., raises $10M from Sequoia
Satellier, a Chicago company that provides services to the architecture, engineering and construction industry, said it has raised $10 million in a second round of funding from Sequoia Capital.
The company said it will open three U.S. offices in the next six months, and a U.K. office and new delivery centers in India within the next 24 months.
Sumir Chadha, managing director of Sequoia Capital India, said in a press release: “As many professional services from law to architecture are moving offshore, we look for leading companies in their fields to have the greatest chance of long-term success. [CEO Michael Jansen’s] vision for the future of Satellier, to create the first ever transnational BIM firm, is poised to change the face of the AEC industry.”
