Pillsbury advised LiveOak Ventures, an early-stage venture capital firm based in Austin, Texas, in leading a $5 million funding round for Degree Analytics, a leader in data-informed campus solutions.
With over 23 years of successful venture investing in Texas, the founders of LiveOak have helped create nearly $5 billion of enterprise value. Additionally, while almost all of LiveOak’s investments begin in the early stages, LiveOak is a complete life cycle investor focused on technology and technology-enabled service companies.
According to a company press release, this investment will drive the development and rollout of Degree Analytics’ facilities optimization platform, empowering colleges and universities to unlock new efficiencies, cut costs and enhance student experiences by harnessing real-time data insights.
