Quick Take
Schneider Electric (OTCPK:SBGSF) has led an investment syndicate in Sense’s recent Series B funding round of $18 million.
Sense is developing a home energy management system for consumer use.
SBGSF led the round for Sense, which is part of renewed investment activity for Schneider as it begins a push into the connected home market. I expect additional investments both within the space as well as in connected business and industrial markets.
