“We are refocusing our product and marketing efforts and will return to focus on big and medium-sized companies rather than small companies that require a lot of marketing expenses,” Chemi Katz, CEO and co-founder of Namogoo, told Calcalist. “We want to reach profitability by the middle of next year and we will change our expense structure.”
Namogoo has raised $81 million to date, including $15 million in its latest round six months ago. Investors in the company include Connecticut-based venture firm Oak HC/FT Partners LLC, Blumberg Capital, GreatPoint Ventures, and Hanaco Ventures.

“We are continuing to grow nicely every year and we are in a good position with revenue in the tens of millions of dollars,” added Katz.
