Nayatek Completes Series A Financing

Newark, Delaware. (December 17, 2008)—Nayatek announced today that it has completed its Series A financing round. The round was led by Originate Ventures, a Bethlehem, PA based venture capital firm that invests in early stage, high growth opportunities. Nayatek is a developer of next generation enterprise Information Management solutions providing comprehensive Content Archiving, EDiscovery, Storage Management and Compliance functionality.

The funding will be used to accelerate global sales efforts and further value-added product development investments for Nayatek’s next generation content archiving platform, Datosphere. Designed to be data neutral, it provides a single, enterprise platform to ensure the capture of disparate data formats, ensure security, integrity and privacy of electronically stored information (ESI) and to maintain objectively verifiable procedures to comply with industry regulations, EDiscovery requests and internal policies. Datosphere’s next generation dynamic grid architecture is built to solidly address the problems of today and tomorrow associated with ESI.

“We are very bullish about the future even in a tough economic climate”, said Marc Olson, Nayatek’s CEO. “The explosion in the volume of corporate content shows no signs of slowing and its impact upon organizations will only continue to grow as a result of the current financial challenges in the global markets. We believe that Datosphere’s dynamic grid architecture, its integrated redundancies and forensic security model that underpin its comprehensive Content Archiving, EDiscovery, Storage Management and Compliance functionality will revolutionize how organizations capture, index, store, secure, manage, retain and discover their ESI”, Olson added.

“We are pleased with our fund’s investment in Nayatek”, said Eric Arnson, Managing Partner of Originate Ventures. “We believe that the value propositions of Nayatek’s solutions are very compelling in today’s markets.
