Theatro Closes $20 Million Series C Funding to Accelerate the Growth of Its Enterprise Mobile Platform

Nearly 125,000 Frontline Employees Use Theatro’s Intelligent Voice Assistant to Help Them Do Their Jobs; Funding to Continue the Expansion of Theatro’s Mobile Platform into New Markets and Geographies

Theatro, the fastest-growing enterprise mobile voice platform in the market, announced it has secured a $20 million Series C investment from Sageview Capital, a growth capital firm focused on investing in leading tech-enabled businesses. The new investment follows closely after Theatro’s $15 million Series B-1 earlier this year that included strategic investments by Cisco Investments and Honeywell Ventures. This new capital will help Theatro rapidly scale its offerings across retail, hospitality, manufacturing and other markets that have large hourly workforces. With this investment, Sageview Capital partner Dean Nelson will join the Theatro Board of Directors.

“We have been impressed with the impact that Theatro’s solutions have made in the retail market, and we believe that their strong value proposition will be well received across a broad range of geographies and markets.”

Theatro’s voice-driven virtual assistant gives frontline employees “heads-up and hands-free” mobile access to their enterprise systems, leadership teams, and each other. The SaaS solution utilizes speech technology, mobile apps and free IoT devices to help employees operate more efficiently and stay focused on customers, rather than looking at a screen for information. This helps businesses drive employee productivity and creates personalized customer experiences while increasing sales, conversion rates and operational profitability.
