Social Marketing Startup Thismoment Raises $17.6 Million

Thismoment, a San Francisco-based content marketing startup that helps brands create content for sharing to social media, has raised $17.6 million in new venture funding, according to CEO Vince Broady. The series D round was led by existing investors Sierra Ventures, Trident Capital and UMC Capital.

Thismoment, founded in 2008, focuses specifically on user-generated content, helping brands like Coca-Cola and Levi’s identify and promote social media posts created by customers. The company has now raised more than $50 million, and will use the new funding to improve its technology (locate better user generated content) and continue to expand its business internationally into Europe and Latin America, said Broady.
