CHICAGO – Dec. 2, 2021 – Hologram, a global cellular platform for IoT connectivity, announced today it completed a $6.8 million capital raise from underrepresented investor groups. The round finalizes Hologram’s $67 million Series B with participation from angel investors and VCs, including but not limited to Founders Circle Capital, Mindset Ventures, Chingona Ventures, and Converge.
“Everyone at Hologram is thrilled with the result of this capital investment as it fully aligns with our values as a company,” said Ben Forgan, CEO and cofounder of Hologram. “This round allows us to tap into different networks, such as the Cap Table Coalition, and new strengths from these diverse investors. It’s critical these underrepresented investor groups gain access and a seat at the table.”
