Digital Taxonomy Gets Funds, Staff and New Office

In London, research software firm Digital Taxonomy has secured what it describes as a 'substantial' round of investment funding, which it will use for further business growth. To support this, the firm has hired recent graduate George Hamza and relocated to offices in the heart of Bloomsbury.

The company's proprietary 'Codeit' software automatically codes and analyses open, unstructured text. Clients use it to uncover insight from customer comments, survey responses and social media that would previously have been too expensive or slow to analyse.

Following recent growth in its customer base, the company has hired Hamza, who recently graduated from the University of Bedfordshire with a first in Computer Science and a Masters in Information Systems Management. In his new role, Hamza helps clients with their support requirements, while testing and adding new features to Codeit, and is also actively involved in supporting the company's product roadmap. In addition, Digital Taxonomy has secured the services of a summer intern with artificial intelligence experience, to work on a project aimed a further enhancing the company's machine learning technology.

To accommodate this and future growth, Digital Taxonomy has moved to BLOOM.SPACE in Gower Street - a shared workspace which supports technology-focused start-ups, and provides access to professional advisers and mentors experienced in the tech field. Commenting on the news, CEO Pat Molloy (pictured) said: 'In addition to more space, we are now also sitting along like-minded start-ups with whom to share experience. Accounting, legal, business planning and tax planning help is all on hand and already paying dividends'.
