The development comes after Snyk earlier this year had tapped banks including Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs Group Inc for an initial public offering (IPO) in the US, as it looked to double its valuation. Snyk, whose previous round was valued at $8.5 billion, on Monday said it received participation from new investors including Tiger Global and Sands Capital for the latest fund raise. The investment is expected to drive Snyk’s product innovation, expand organically and inorganically through strategic acquisition, the company said.
