OpenOcean’s investment in Hygraph

OpenOcean’s investment in Hygraph

We are happy to announce our recent lead investment into Berlin-based Hygraph (former GraphCMS), bringing total funding to $13.7 million (approx £10 million). It is our largest initial Series A investment to date, aimed at creating a unified data and content layer as a backbone for the data-driven Enterprise.

Unlike legacy systems, Hygraph’ platform can deliver content as data to any platform or device via API, removing the need to format content to each specific device and platform. This allows customers to deliver omnichannel content at scale.

Hygraph will use this investment to focus on API integrations, accelerate product adoption, and grow its team globally across the US, UK, and European markets.
