“Big Data” Firm Opera Solutions Raises $84 Million
Data-analytics company Opera Solutions LLC is set to announce its first-ever investment round, an $84 million cash injection expected to value the New York company at around $500 million, according to people familiar with the matter.
Lead investor Silver Lake Sumeru, along with Accel-KKR, Invus Financial Advisors, JGE Capital Management and Tola Capital, are putting money into Opera, which hopes to capitalize on the interest in “big data” projects that companies, governments and other large institutions use to analyze real-time information.
