Big Data analytics solutions provider Nuevora, Inc., announced today that it has secured its first round of institutional funding and will use the proceeds to develop a suite of cloud-based business-processes-as-a-service (BPaaS) analytics applications. Fortisure Ventures of San Francisco provided the funding.

Nuevora develops business analytics solutions for major corporations in retail, financial services, insurance, high technology, and travel services markets. In doing so over the past few years, the company has built a proven analytics platform and targeted analytics solutions that can be delivered as Business-Processes-as-a-Service (BPaaS) via the cloud.

"Just as software-as-a-service (SaaS) disrupted the traditional enterprise software business models over the past decade, Nuevora envisions a new wave of business processes-as-a-service (BPaaS) applications taking root in major corporations that drive smarter decisions through real-time and continuous analytics," said Phani Nagarjuna, founder & CEO of Nuevora. "It's clearly becoming an apps-driven world, whether at the consumer level or within the corporates and we intend to be among the leaders in the new BPaaS market space. This new funding will be instrumental in helping us execute that strategy."

"We were drawn to Nuevora by Phani's knowledge of the business analytics space and our conviction that analytics provides tangible value to companies by helping them understand their customers better," said Mani Subramanian, founder & CEO of Fortisure Ventures. "We are confident that Phani and his team, through his leadership and the SaaS/cloud based analytics solutions they are developing, will help Nuevora provide the right value proposition to companies in their target industries."

A software and technology industry executive, Phani founded Nuevora after serving as EVP of Products and Strategy of OneCommand, a leading Software-as-a-Service cross-channel marketing automation solutions company. Prior to this, Phani was head of worldwide sales, marketing and corporate strategy for Caritor (Caritor later acquired Keane, became a $1B global services firm and merged with NTT DATA in December 2010). Before this, Phani held various product marketing and customer strategy positions at Siebel Systems.
