Zencity raises $30m to help governments better tune in to citizen needs
Summary
According to Zencity, now as ever, local government leaders need accurate, real-time community feedback to guide key decision-making around critical efforts such as vaccination, re-opening, and police reform. Zencity said the new round of funding will continue to drive its vision of providing a single platform for community input and insight, and will power development of additional capabilities and offerings. State and local government leaders are already leveraging Zencity’s unified solution to understand trends in organic discourse, as well as proactively seek community feedback via polls and surveys. “As one of Zencity’s early investors, watching the company execute so well on its vision to help local government agencies better serve their residents is inspiring,” said Emanuel Timor, general partner at Vertex Ventures Israel. Based on its impressive growth and the quality of its management and entire team, we were eager to more than double Vertex’s investment in Zencity.” You might also like: • Govtech acquisition to deliver new community insights and analytics
