Northbrook, IL, Jan. 17, 2018 – Unitas Global, a leading provider of managed hybrid cloud solutions for enterprise organizations worldwide, recently secured $10 million in new funding in a financing lead by Boathouse Capital.  All of the existing institutional investors, including MK Capital also participated in the round. The financing will facilitate further investment in the company’s proprietary software platforms that make hybrid cloud easier to consume and manage, as well as to invest in opportunities to expand solutions and accelerate growth globally.

Unitas Global’s impressive performance has also recently been acknowledged by industry analysts, resulting in multiple awards recognizing growth, service innovation, and excellence. These awards culminated in Unitas making the top 25% of the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies in America for the first time in its history. In 2017, Unitas was also recognized for industry awards including the Red Herring Top 100 Global List, CRN Top 150 Fastest Growing Companies, and No. 23 on the Talkin’ Cloud 100 report.

Funds will also be invested to continue to scale the organization to support strong customer demand and a rapidly expanding market for its solutions.
