In April, the Noida-based firm had raised $24.5 million in Series D from Microsoft’s venture fund M12, with participation from Eight Roads Ventures, Honeywell Ventures, and existing investor SAIF Partners.

FarEye said the new investment will accelerate its global expansion. “With recently raised funds, we will continue to invest in the best talent in the Americas, Europe, and APAC to support our hyper-growth in these regions,” Kushal Nahata, CEO, FarEye, said in a statement.
