How it started

History

As of 2012, the company had raised approximately $40 million in three funding rounds from Jafco Ventures, Eden Ventures, Matrix Partners and angel investors.

On September 12, 2013, Huddle announced its desktop integrations with Huddle for Mac, Huddle for Windows and Huddle for Outlook. The launch of Huddle Note followed in December 2013, enabling simple content creation in the cloud, along with a redesigned iOS app. The Huddle for Office integration launched the following year.

In 2014, Huddle announced that it had secured a global enterprise-wide agreement with Grant Thornton, which will make the secure cloud collaboration technology available to member firms across the globe. In addition, Williams Lea, the global business process outsourcing (BPO) company, signed an enterprise-wide agreement with Huddle, adding it to its suite of online tools to further increase the speed at which it collaborates internally and externally.

In August 2017, Huddle was acquired by Turn/River Capital, a San Francisco–based private equity firm.
