Bulgarian Company Raises $10 Million in This Round to Develop a Hybrid Data Infrastructure Platform
TDJ Growth has joined the group of investors in Tiger Technology, a Bulgarian company developing data management solutions for hybrid environments. As part of this $10 million financing round, the company secured capital to further accelerate its international expansion and develop products that support enterprises in building infrastructure ready for the era of artificial intelligence.
The round was led by 3TS Capital Partners. In addition to TDJ Growth, the investors also included Endeavor Catalyst, Impetus, and the company’s existing investors.
The newly raised capital will enable Tiger Technology to accelerate its growth in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East, expand its product offering, and strengthen its network of commercial partners.
TDJ Growth’s participation in the financing round is consistent with its strategy of investing in technology companies from Central and Eastern Europe that have a proven product, a scalable business model, and the potential for international expansion.
“What convinced us about Tiger Technology is its ability to solve a real and increasingly important problem faced by enterprises. The company’s software enables organizations to extend their on-premises data infrastructure to the cloud without changing the applications and workflows they rely on every day. The market fundamentals are very strong – volumes of unstructured data are growing rapidly, regulatory requirements demand increasingly longer data retention, and AI adoption is driving demand for cloud-accessible data, while full cloud migration remains too costly and complex for many organizations. Hybrid data infrastructure is the answer to these challenges, and Tiger Technology is taking full advantage of this trend. We are excited to support this exceptional team not only with capital but also with our experience in scaling technology businesses,” says Mateusz Sumara, Head of TDJ Growth.
“Tiger Technology stood out through a combination of unique technical breakthroughs in petabyte-level hybrid storage, mission-critical customer deployments, and a clear market opportunity driven by AI adoption, data security and sovereignty. The company has built a highly differentiated platform that enables enterprises to modernize their data infrastructure while preserving existing investments. As organizations accelerate cloud adoption and AI initiatives, Tiger Technology is exceptionally well positioned to scale globally.” comments Sever Totia, Partner at 3TS Capital Partners
“This financing is an important validation of the value of our technology, the trust of our customers, and the business we have built in international markets. Thanks to this investment, we will accelerate our global expansion, strengthen our cooperation with the world’s leading cloud platforms, and make our solutions available to even more enterprises operating in mission-critical environments,” says Iravan Hira, CEO of Tiger Technology.
Tiger Technology develops solutions that enable enterprises to securely manage data across environments combining on-premises infrastructure with the cloud. The company’s flagship product, Tiger Bridge, allows organizations to extend their on-premises data storage to the cloud without modifying the applications and business processes they already use. As a result, companies can better prepare their data for artificial intelligence projects while maintaining security, regulatory compliance, and business continuity.
“Many years ago, we made a bet that at the time seemed to go against prevailing market trends. The industry drew a clear line between the cloud and on-premises infrastructure, assuming that enterprises would eventually have to choose one or the other. We did not believe that. We believed the market needed a transparent bridge between the two architectures – a solution that would be seamless, efficient, and invisible to the business processes on which companies depend every day. The growth of artificial intelligence, the need for continuous access to data, and the increasing scale of cybersecurity threats are now among the key drivers of demand for our solutions and our continued growth,” says Alexander Lefterov, Founder and CTO of Tiger Technology.
Today, more than 40% of enterprise data is still stored on-premises, and the majority of it consists of unstructured data. The rapid development of AI, growing regulatory requirements, and the need for long-term data retention are making hybrid data infrastructure solutions one of the fastest-growing segments of the technology market. According to forecasts, the market is expected to reach nearly $30 billion by 2030.
Tiger Technology works with the world’s leading cloud service providers, including AWS, which recognized the company as a Rising Star Partner 2025. The company’s solutions are used by customers in the transportation, media, construction, and public sector. Today, Tiger Technology manages more than 100 petabytes of customer data worldwide.
