Space-Time Insight
Space-Time Insight provides geospatial analytics software for utilities and infrastructure, acquired by Schneider Electric in 2017.
Space-Time Insight
Space-Time Insight was founded in 2006 by Marc Connor and Steve Gollmer, with early backing from Menlo Ventures and Noventi Ventures (per public record). The company built a software platform that fuses sensor data, satellite imagery, and weather feeds into a single operational dashboard — used primarily by electric utilities, oil-and-gas pipelines, and rail operators to monitor infrastructure across wide geographical areas. The firm's core product visualizes real-time and historical data on interactive maps, enabling anomaly detection and predictive maintenance. Named clients included PG&E, Entergy, and the US Department of Defense (per published case studies from the mid-2010s). Space-Time Insight raised approximately $17M in venture funding across multiple rounds before its acquisition (per SEC filings, 2010–2015). Schneider Electric acquired Space-Time Insight for an undisclosed sum in November 2017 (per the company's announcement at the time). The technology was folded into Schneider's EcoStruxure platform, serving industrial and energy customers. Key team members transitioned to Schneider, and the product continued as Space-Time Insight SE. No publicly disclosed AUM or professionals count exists, as the firm is no longer an independent asset manager but a software subsidiary. The structural differentiator of Space-Time Insight was its fusion of geospatial intelligence with operational analytics — a niche that made it an attractive acquisition target for a large industrial software provider. Its lack of standalone financial disclosure reflects its current role as a product unit, not a fund or family office.
