History
ClearSlide was founded in October 2009, funded by the founders and through initial subscribers. The company did not fundraise until the year following its launch.[1] In August 2012, ClearSlide raised a $28 million series B round of financing, announcing that it was to fuel their rapid growth and expansion plans. On March 5, 2013 the company bought SlideRocket from VMWare.[2] A second acquisition was announced on July 2, 2013, when ClearSlide bought Crunched, a rival cloud-based sales engagement platform.[3]
