Wikibon ha publicado un listado, que insisten una y otra vez en que no es exhaustivo, pero que desprende un gran interés: financiación por parte de entidades de capital riesgo de las principales startups del mundo de los macrodatos.
Primera reflexión que me viene a la mente: qué interesante sería tener una información así de las empresas big data MadeInSpain, a que sí? ;)
Un aspecto en el que inciden es que hay un promedio bastante elevado en el funding: 19 millones de dólares, lo que se entiende como un gran interés por parte de los inversores en big data.
Los cinco primeros son: Palantir (888M), Cloudera (301M), MongoDB (223M), Mu Sigma (208M), y Hortonworks (148M). Sólo ellos representan el 50% del total del listado. Ir al artículo original

Buenos días,
Sí realmente este es un sector muy potente, con un crecimiento fuerte y atractivo a los inversores. De todas maneras en general la inversión es mucho más fuerte en las regiones USA/UK, es un hecho.
Me sorprende la financiación que han conseguido algunas de estas empresas y que solo cuentan con un par de años desde su inicio, realmente han conseguido un presupuesto bastante alto
