  • Hubilo has raised $125 million in Series B funding from Alkeon Capital along with the participation of Lightspeed Venture Partners and Balderton Capital.

    This brings the company’s total funding to $153 million across multiple funding rounds.

    Hubilo also plans to set up new sales offices in key regions to expand its operations and reach a greater volume of customers. In addition, Hubilo will also increase the overall employees’ count by 150 per cent to support its rapid growth plans and to respond to the increased customer demand for virtual and hybrid events.

    “The power to engage with massive audiences unlocks the potential for more diverse, geographically dispersed communities to come together for business and consumer events, remote workforces to stay engaged, and organizations to rethink the way they hire and train. The potential ahead of us with this investment is massive,” said Vaibhav Jain, CEO and founder at Hubilo.

    “We believe strongly in the global distributed workforce being a megatrend that will impact all of us in the future. It is clear that the way we collaborate and connect will need to be rearchitected in order for any global player to succeed,” said Abhi Arun, Managing Partner at Alkeon Capital.
