Poka, a Québec City-based social industrial platform, has raised $10 million in its latest financing, according to a report by BetaKit.
The round was led by Espace CDPQ, an entrepreneurial hub created by Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, the report said. It was joined by Robert Bosch Venture Capital GmbH (RBVC), the Leclerc family, and Poka’s original seed investors iNovia Capital and Uncork Capital.
Founded in 2013 by CEO Alexandre Leclerc and CTO Antoine Bisson, Poka helps manufacturing companies with communications and training through a web and mobile application that collects and shares comprehensive factory data and procedures in real time.
To date, the startup has raised $17 million in total funding, the report said.
Update: Poka confirmed the financing in a release issued after the BetaKit report, noting that RBVC co-led with Espace CDPQ.
