Unremot raises US$ 700k in a seed round

Techstars backed SaaS startup unremot that offers a community-driven business-in-a-box solution for consultants, has raised US$ 700K in a seed round led by Inflection Point Ventures and participated by Digital Futurists Angels Network (DFAN), ah! Ventures and Point One Capital.

Vinay Bansal, Founder and CEO, Inflection Point Ventures said, “Unremot steps in at a time when discovering professionals on a seamless platform had become extremely important.

This platform has bridged the gap and helped consultants create a community-like structure, increasing their discoverability factor.
