<\/span>Investment in big data analytics companies grew considerably in 2015, when 73 rounds were made for an amount of $$1.8B. In the first half of 2016, investment seems to have fallen a little, with 25 rounds.<\/span><\/span><\/h5>\n
<\/span>Big data and analytics, a sector to invest in?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h5>\n

The majority of the rounds closed in 2016 are early-stage rounds, which shows that this is a sector where innovation is taking place, where there is still a long way to go, and where products are still being tested in the market. However, the fact that renowned investors such as Andreessen Horowitz <\/a>or Accel Partners,<\/a> are among the most active investors in the sector, make big data for analytics a sector in which it makes sense to invest.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>New Enterprise Associates<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h5>\n

NEA, he has also been involved in Spanish companies such as Wallapop<\/a>which it entered last year to push the virtual second-hand marketplace as it expands across the US.<\/span><\/p>\n

Among the investments it has made in the big data analytics sector, it is worth highlighting the one made in Pentaho<\/a><\/span> in 2012, for being one of the first rounds made in the sector, as well as for the amount raised ($23M), which was quite high for a big data company in 2012. In 2015 Pentaho was sold to Hitachi Data Systems. Pentaho is a business intelligence tool that analyses business data and allows you to make reports.<\/span><\/p>\n

The last investment made in this sector was in September 2016, in the company DataRobot. The $33M round was led by Nea, but other investors such as Accomplice and Intel Capital also participated. DataRobot is a predictive analytics platform for companies.<\/span><\/p>\n
