BATON ROUGE, La., Jan. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Catalyst Fund, Louisiana Fund II and Core Associates, LLC have invested in Baton Rouge-based software company, eRisk Consulting, LLC. The funding will assist eRisk in accelerating the development of its proprietary mobile application platform, eNTERFACE.
According to Chris Jordan, President of eRISK Consulting, "We are very excited about our recent fundraising efforts. Our new partners will bring capital resources, as well as industry expertise and strategic global positioning in the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia." eRisk plans to use a significant portion of the funds for manpower expansion and to help strengthen the scalability of the platform.
"We have made tremendous strides in our technology over the past several months, and plan on rolling out our new ENTERFACE1 platform in mid-2017. This enhancement to our existing platform will allow us to deliver a broad library of custom business process applications inside a single enterprise portal solution; it will be a true industry game-changer," says Jordan.
"eRisk is a home-grown, high-growth technology company that will positively impact Louisiana's entrepreneurial ecosystem and will complement our portfolio of companies," says Louis Freeman, Jr, CEO of The Catalyst Fund.
In May 2016, Core Associates entered into a license agreement with eRisk to offer TimberScan users a brand-new form and application development platform. "We've built a lot of momentum with TimberScan eForms, and are planning more great things for new and existing clients," states Core Associates' CEO, Frank Grenci. The company's CSO, Bernard Ross adds, "We're thrilled to be a part of both firms' continued success."
