The funds will be used to further leapfrog Asana with its ambitious work management platform. Vocap Investment Partners led the round that included Rembrandt Venture Partners and return investors Tribeca Venture Partners.

Hive's collaboration platform is deadly simple. It turns otherwise ad-hoc teamwork across companies into quick, automated, repeatable processes, regardless of application, on a single platform. In one year, Hive has grown its customer base 100% each month, from zero to over 2,000 enterprise teams, including Pinterest, WeWork, HBO, Expedia, Salesforce, Nike, The Economist, and Harvard University. Hive's seamless and simple integration of team actions, messages, and files has led customers to abandon incumbent tools.

"The era of disconnected, point solutions is over," said Hive CEO John Furneaux. "Businesses want one platform to connect their people and their work. This investment allows us to complete our vision of planning, execution, communication, and calendaring on a single launchpad. This is the new business operating system."

Hive will focus the new resources in engineering (led by former Googlers), expanding its mobile-first platform to include email and calendaring. Users across different businesses will be connected, so suppliers and customers become a part of a coherent end-to-end business process and ecosystem.

"Fragmented solutions have made the modern desktop a mess, without fully delivering on the promise of streamlined team collaboration and transparency," said Vocap Investment Partners Managing Director Mike Becker. "Hive changes that. They've built the most intuitive, easy-to-use platform for project management and collaboration."
