NetBase Announces $18.1 Million Expansion Round

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA -- June 19, 2012 -- NetBase, the Enterprise Social Intelligence (ESI) Platform company, today announced an $18.1 million expansion round from Thomvest Ventures, Altos Ventures and Tran Ventures, among others. With the latest capital, the company will focus on the global expansion of enterprise deals and continue to execute on sales and services.

"Social intelligence is no longer a nice-to-have for companies, it's a must-have," said Peter Caswell, CEO of NetBase. "The market is rapidly evolving and enterprises are realizing that business intelligence on its own is not enough. We've seen an increased adoption of our social intelligence platform, and will continue to expand our services and global presence to meet the needs of customers worldwide."

The social web has created a fundamental shift in the development of consumer attitude and beliefs about products, services and brands. Businesses who once functioned by a B2C (Business-to-Consumer) or B2B (Business-to-Business) model now struggle with the speed and scale of social networks, leading to a new C2B (Customer-to-Business) model where customers guide brand perception. NetBase recently joined forces with SAP to address this shift and deliver social media analytics to global enterprises.

"NetBase has a great team that is bringing the business value of social media to enterprise companies," said Don Butler, managing director of Thomvest Ventures. "Enterprises are using NetBase to drive responsiveness to customers and in turn increase their business ROI. We're excited to be a part of this round and to see the company's continued growth and success."
