We are thrilled to announce our $145M Series D, led by ICONIQ Growth. 

Sandberg Bernthal Venture Partners, and existing investors including IVP, Meritech, Greenoaks and Felix Capital also joined the round. 

This funding follows a strong year for Pigment in which we tripled revenue, doubled customers, and on-boarded major enterprise brands, such as Unilever, Merck, and Datadog. 

We’re looking forward to building on the success of the last few years, as we strengthen our presence in North America and EMEA and continue to double down on product innovation. 

Thank you to everyone that’s been involved in the Pigment journey so far. Check the comments to learn more about what’s next 👇
