Zenysis raises $13.3M to scale its big data platform – TechCrunch

Therefore, Stambolis hoped that by launching Zenysis, hed take some of the talent and resources in Silicon Valley and South Africa, where the company has its second headquarters and direct them to work on problems that matter.Stamboliss reaction was triggered by the Ebola crisis in 2014. The big data company has provided its software to partners and governments in Ethiopia, Rwanda, South Africa, Zambia, Brazil, Vietnam, Mozambique and Pakistan.These countries seldom embark on intervention projects alone or solely with Zenysis. I feel like a lot of Silicon Valleys ethos for the last 15 years has been defined by the mantra move fast and break things; weve shown that we are a different type of company. So, we want to be at the forefront of helping countries get on top of that in a data-driven way.Joe Exner, the chief executive at the lead investor SFFH, said in a statement that its investment will enable Zenysis to focus on its core mission of developing the innovative capabilities needed to strengthen health systems and prevent future pandemics. In addition to that, I think there was very strong spiritual alignment between the two organizations, the CEO said, adding that SFFH didnt demand a board seat and completed the investment within 21 days of signing its term sheet.
