Matillion Raises $35M to Advance Data Transformation in the Cloud

DENVER, Colo. and MANCHESTER, England, June 4, 2019 — Matillion, provider of data transformation software for cloud data warehouses (CDWs), announced a $35 million round of funding.

The investment will allow Matillion to capitalize on its leading category position while continuing to deliver accelerated growth, and extend the capabilities of its flagship product line, Matillion ETL. Battery Ventures led the round, bringing Matillion’s total funding to-date to $60 million. Existing investors, Sapphire Ventures and Scale Venture Partners also participated.

“It’s our view that every company in the world needs to compete using data,” said Matthew Scullion, CEO at Matillion. “And most of the time they’ll do this in the cloud. Only the cloud offers the speed, agility, power, and economics to cope with this demand for data insights, and to manage the exponentially growing data volumes and complexities that we work with today. As the leader in purpose-built data transformation software for cloud data warehouses, Matillion is perfectly positioned to help our customers compete and win using data. That’s why we’re so excited to raise this round, partner with the great team at Battery Ventures, and to once again accelerate our business and the development of our current and future products.”

“Matillion has built an innovative, cloud-native, data-middleware product from the ground up, and the company partners with some of the fastest-growing cloud-data warehousing platforms that enterprises are deploying today,” said Dharmesh Thakker, general partner at Battery Ventures. “Battery is focused on such cloud-first businesses worldwide – including in Europe – as enterprise IT shifts to the cloud, and the ability to analyze data underpins the digital-transformation process at all companies. We’re excited to partner with Matthew and the Matillion team to help drive the next phase of the company’s global growth.”

“Matillion has established itself as an essential component to the modern enterprise’s data analytics tech stack,” said Denise Persson, CMO at Snowflake. “Our shared focus on innovation has made us great partners, and this latest investment reinforces Matillion’s leadership in cloud-native solutions for data transformation.
