WESTON, Fla., Feb. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Digibee, the leading low-code integration platform, announced its $25 million Series A round led by SoftBank Latin America Fund with additional participation from Kinea and G2D Investments.  With this investment, Digibee plans to grow its customer base in the United States and in Latin America to empower more global enterprises to win the digital race.

Digibee is built by innovators from the world's leading technology companies to change the way companies connect their systems.

"We are thrilled to see that the investment community believes in our mission to make our customers and our customers' customers unstoppable," said Rodrigo Bernardinelli, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Digibee.

The company tackles a cost line – integrations – that accounts for over 50% of software spend, enabling organizations to connect their systems to turn the digital transformation into reality", says Rodrigo Baer, Managing Partner of early-stage investments at SoftBank Latin America Fund. "The company is building a world class salesforce to take that solution to market, which will turn their product into a really global player".
