Fluence Technologies raises $12.5 million CAD, swaps CEOs to fuel next phase of growth
Toronto FinTech software startup Fluence Technologies has closed a $12.5 million CAD ($10 million USD) Series A round from Banneker Partners, as it looks to bring its financial close and consolidation software to more mid-sized companies, and expand its presence in Europe.
The startup has also appointed performance management software veteran Michael Morrison as its new CEO. Morrison is replacing Fluence’s founding CEO John Power, who is transitioning to COO. In the new role, Power will focus on customer success and guide Fluence’s product vision.
“We help organizations close their books with confidence,” said Michael Morrison, Fluence’s new CEO.

The Series C round gives Vista a minority stake in the Toronto-based company. Vena stated plans to use the funds to accelerate growth.
Vena, founded in 2011, provides cloud-based financial planning and analysis (FP&A) to medium and large-sized companies. Its technology aids in the management of budgeting, forecasting and business planning. The startup currently has more than 900 customers.
The Series C financing follows $25 million USD in growth capital financing Vena secured in September from CIBC Innovation Banking. At the time, it was noted that the loan was meant to support the startup amid the COVID-19 pandemic, with Vena CFO Darrell Cox calling the facility a “very low-cost buffer in uncertain times.”
