Creatio Raises $68 Million to Fuel Growth of its Leading Low-Code Platform for Process Management and CRM

The round is a minority investment to extend Creatio’s leadership position in projected $187B+ low-code platform market

Creatio, a global software company that provides a leading low-code platform for process management and CRM, announced a $68M capital raise led by Volition Capital, a US-based growth equity firm investing in high growth companies, with participation from Horizon Capital, a private equity firm investing in Europe. The funding is a minority investment to fuel the company’s growth, with Creatio’s strategy, leadership team, product vision and commitment to customer success remaining unchanged.

Since its founding, Creatio has achieved rapid organic growth without previous external capital. Today, the company is delivering exceptional financial results with a team of 600 people worldwide. This investment comes on the heels of rapid exponential company growth. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, its net retention rate in 2020 was the highest in the company’s history. Creatio will use the funds to build aggressively on this momentum and will invest in R&D, global marketing and sales expansion, and support its vast network of partners in 110 countries worldwide.
