("Wrike") has recently completed a US$15 million equity financing round led by Scale Venture Partners, a prominent US venture capital fund.

As a result, TMT now holds approximately 3.68% of Wrike's fully-diluted equity capital worth approximately $4.3 million.

Alexander Selegenev, Executive Director of TMT, commented: "We are delighted that our expectations of seeing a number of significant positive portfolio revaluations announced in our 2014 Annual Report started to materialize so quickly. Wrike's ability to manage complex digital work with ease is driving its expansive growth, which has accelerated since the launch of its enterprise offering in 2013. The company is now adding over US$1.5 million in new annualised recurring revenue every month. We look forward to continued growth at Wrike."
