IoT Startup Neura Pulls In $11M Series A

January 19, 2015 | Israeli IoT startup Neura has raised $11 million in their Series A round of funding led by AXA Strategic Ventures and Pitango Venture Capital, with participation from Lenovo Group.  Led by Co-Founder and CEO Gilad Meiri, Neura has developed a platform that helps users personalize their connected devices while guarding their data. Their app and software development kit can currently be integrated with more than 55 devices and software channels, and will enable what it calls the ‘personalization of the Internet of Things.’ Neura’s technology is “a big step towards a world where devices not only connect to each other, but adapt themselves to users and their habits,” Peter Hortensius, Lenovo’s CTO, said on Monday.
