Sciencescape closes oversubscribed $3 mln round led by iGan Partners
The previously-announced financing of Sciencescape, a technology platform that helps academics and researchers discover and organize publications and related work in their fields, has been completed. The Toronto-based company closed $2.5 million of its $3 million oversubscribed round, which was led by Canadian venture capital firm iGan Partners with the participation of BDC Venture Capital and angel investors. A graduate of Extreme Startups' accelerator program last June, Sciencescape has since finalized a beta release of its product, which is initially geared to the biomedical sector. Investment proceeds will be used to develop the company's platform further, and for sales and marketing initiatives.
