Formatta Closes $3 Million in Funding
Software Industry Veteran Grant Wagner Named CEO
Fairfax, VA
February 18, 2009 - Formatta, a leading provider of E-Forms data capture and integration software solutions,
today announced it has closed $3 million in financing from existing investor Edison Venture Fund and
Silicon Valley Bank. The company has now raised over $7 million over the course of the past year. Formatta
will use the funding to grow and execute its channel strategy, increase its market visibility and position
through new messaging, and further product development. Concurrent with its new funding, Formatta also
announced that software industry veteran Grant Wagner has joined the company as President and CEO.
“Up to 70% of the data needed to run an organization is trapped on paper forms and paper equivalents such
as Word documents and .pdf files,” said Grant Wagner, President and CEO, Formatta, Inc. “Formatta is the
perfect solution for enterprises and government organizations that need to quickly and efficiently free trapped
data, integrate it into business applications, and put it to work. I look forward to working with the Formatta
team as we dramatically expand the company’s market footprint.”
CEO Grant Wagner brings over 15 years of executive experience gained at global software companies
including Computer Associates and OTG Software. Wagner has established and dramatically grown
successful sales teams for organizations offering a wide array of software solutions including enterprise
systems management, business applications, enterprise storage, security, wireless communications and
business process management technologies.
Formatta software quickly and efficiently extends the reach of applications to all users and captures
information at point of entry, so organizations have the information they need to operate more efficiently and
effectively. While other solutions solve document/record management and business process management
problems, they do not efficiently capture data from users and move it to the applications that need it most. A
core component of paperless and other green initiatives, Formatta provides the most affordable, scalable,
and easiest to implement, use, and maintain e-forms data capture and integration solution on the market
today.
“Grant is a proven leader who knows how to grow companies and bring enterprise-grade software products
to market,” said Gary Golding, General Partner, Edison Venture Fund. “We look forward to continuing to
support Formatta and Grant as they pursue an untapped market opportunity.”
