KKR
said on Thursday it is investing alongside existing lead
investors Carmel Ventures and Pitango, both Israeli venture
capital funds. KKR will support global expansion plans of
Optimal+ with capital as well as access to its network of
companies and technology experts.
Optimal+ was founded in 2005 in Tel Aviv by its chief executive
Dan Glotter and has been rolling out its products over the last
four years. Its software analyses and processes more than 25
billion chips per year to help customers improve their product
quality, output yields and processing times.
In January KKR invested in Israel's ClickTale, whose software
enables website owners to see how people behave on their sites.
