Home technology support and consultancy firm HelloTech Inc. raised $20 million in a new fundraising round with continued support from local venture capital firms. The round brings HelloTech’s total funding to roughly $95 million since its 2014 incorporation.

HelloTech’s previous funding round for $5 million was an early stage VC round completed in March 2018, with a post valuation of $75 million, according to PitchBook Data Inc.

Twenty nine investors have bankrolled HelloTech. Among the nine local investors are Amplify.LA, the Venice-based early stage venture capital investor founded by Paul Bricault, and Beverly Hills-based Baroda Ventures, Pasadena-based IdeaLab, Venice-based CrossCut Ventures Management, and Sawtelle-based Wavemaker Partners.

Additionally, e-commerce platform Lucky Group Inc. Co-Founder and President Diego Berdakin, a Los Angeles resident and private investor, contributed $2.5 million to HelloTech’s seed round in Jan. 2015, PitchBook notes.

Four Santa Monica-based firms invested in HelloTech, including Upfront Ventures Management and Wonder Ventures, Basepoint Ventures, and AI List Management, which invests in artificial intelligence and technology startups.
