"2009 was a year of successes for Tagsys," said Alain Fanet, CEO of Tagsys. "While increasing revenue, and closing major projects, we improved operational efficiency by 40 percent and established processes that assure our customers and partners superior levels of quality, delivery and solution reliability."
"The new funding will accelerate our partner network expansion and new market development, while reinforcing our strong competitive position by launching leading-edge solutions for item-level applications," Fanet continued.
In 2007, Tagsys raised $16 million in the second and final tranche of its $35 million Series C round of funding.
