New funding will accelerate international sales expansion of the Company’s e-signature software suite into the global SME market, where ad hoc, low security, home-baked processes are pervasive today.

“We’re delighted to announce the close of our first institutional investment round, with participation by Brunnur Ventures, whom we welcome as experienced and valued shareholders in the Company for the next phase of our development,” says Taktikal’s CEO Valur Gunnarsson, “People are commonly emailing sensitive documents such as passport and driver’s license scans in a highly insecure way. Taktikal brings out-of-the-box enterprise-grade document signing and other processes to a vast potential customer base of corporates needing to provide best-in-class workforce and customer onboarding experiences, and driven by increasing security, as well as AML, KYC, PEP and sanctions requirements.”

“To be successful, businesses must find ways to streamline operations and reduce administrative bottlenecks. Taktikal offers an outstanding service to meet these needs,” commented Kjartan Olafsson, Investment Manager at Brunnur Ventures who will take a seat in Taktikal’s board, “We believe that a transformation is overdue in this space akin to the revolution we’ve seen in many other workflow areas such as CRM and project management.”
