It isn’t often that we hear that an 18-month-old startup raised $56 million, Antuit, a big data startup that is headquartered in Singapore. Goldman Sachs led the $56 million round Antuit provides big data analytics and consultancy for a range of different business. It counts more than 20 companies on its client roster, including 8 Fortune 500 firms. For example, it might assist a multinational planning its entry into a new country, or advise a consumer brand preparing the sale of a new product. The difference between Antuit and other big data firms is that the company offers more than just access to complex systems and models. Instead, it operates on a more partner-like basis, working with clients to structure data and intelligence, analyze it, and then model it based on the immediate needs of the business.
