Sigmoid, a data engineering, analytics and AI solutions company, has raised $12 million in a Series B investment, in a mix of primary and secondary funding from Sequoia Capital India. This takes Sequoia Capital India's total investment in Sigmoid to $19.3 million. The fund raised will be used to fuel the company's plan to evolve its market offerings, expand delivery centers and cater to new industries.

"The last 12 months have been an inflexion point in our growth story. As we gear towards our next phase of growth, we are happy to see Sequoia Capital India continue to believe in us. This will help us to rapidly expand our capabilities in terms of solutions and talent to meet the ever-growing customer demand," said Lokesh Anand, CEO and co-founder, Sigmoid.
