The company was founded in 2012 and was self-funded and built on customer revenue until its series A round in 2014. Cloud Elements raised $3.1 million of Series A venture funding through lead investor Grotech Ventures and Icon Venture Partners, with participation from Galvanize Ventures. Cloud Elements helps SaaS application developers get out of the world of building & maintaining integrations, and allows them to build one single integration to their Uniform API, in the category they need, and then access dozens of individual end points. This uniquely positions Cloud Elements to support organizations as they address customer expectations around connected environments, mobile technologies, emerging markets, and cloud services. We asked the team to share a bit about themselves, and this is what Mark Greene, Cofounder & CEO had to say: What’s the hardest lesson you’ve had to learn so far? How do you keep your team motivated? If you had an extra $1,000 to spend on marketing, what would you do? What’s your biggest personal weakness, and how do you make up for it? What personality trait has served you best as an entrepreneur? What’s the weirdest way someone has used your product? What’s one quirky fact about you, your team, or your office culture?
