Eagle to land in South Africa in 2021

Eagle Eye Networks has raised $40 million from venture capital firm Accel to continue its growth and expand its technology leadership. Eagle Eye is leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) on its cloud platform to reshape video surveillance and improve safety, security, operations, and customer service for businesses around the world.

Expanding to SA

Speaking to Hi-Tech Security Solutions, Eagle Eye’s MD for EMEA, Rishi Lodhia, said the company is planning to significantly expand its presence in South Africa in 2021. At the moment, Eagle Eye has a direct fibre connection to the country with a very low latency which will allow for reliable cloud surveillance. With 12 data centres around the world, Lodhia stated that adding a new data centre in South Africa is also a possibility to ensure that video footage stays within the country’s borders.
