Georgian Partners Fund II gets strategic boost from Cisco
Georgian Partners Growth Fund II, the second applied analytics fund of Canadian venture capital firm Georgian Partners, has secured a strategic investment from Cisco Systems Inc. The undisclosed commitment will add to the $100 million that Fund II raised in its first closing in February. Cisco announced plans last month to commit $150 million to support and accelerate innovation in Canada over the next 10 years. The strategy includes making investments in Canadian venture capital funds. Based in Toronto, Georgian Partners in May led the $10 million Series B financing of Top Hat, a mobile and web-based provider of classroom engagement and teaching tools.
