Icertis, an enterprise contract lifecycle manager, has raised $80 million (around Rs 580 crore) in a Series F round, a move that has taken its valuation to $2.8 billion.

This funding comes after Icertis raised $115 million (around Rs 791.6 crore) in a Series E round in July 2019. That exercise, led by PremjiInvest and US-based Greycroft Partners, propelled the firm into the unicorn club of startups with a valuation of at least $1 billion.

It will use the capital it has now raised to enhance technological infrastructure, with a focus on accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain development.
Icertis will also use the round to expand sales and marketing footprints and build out its global partner network.
