SEOUL, South Korea--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bespin Global, a Seoul and Beijing based cloud IT solutions company, announced that it completed a $15 million Series A round of financing.

The round was joined by Premier Partners, Altos Ventures, Hyosung ITX, and other investors. This investment will enable the Company to aggressively accelerate product innovation, expand its sales and marketing efforts and support ongoing plans to broaden its customer reach.
Bespin Global’s mission is to drive the digital transformation of its clients by helping them adopt cloud IT. Through its highly automated multi-cloud management platform and professional services, its customers are able to leverage everything cloud has to offer in speeding up the digital innovation.

“Even with the recent rise of the cloud computing, the vast majority of traditional enterprises are still operating in slow and expensive legacy IT environments.
