IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OnAsset Intelligence, Inc., a leading provider of machine-to-machine (M2M) wireless asset tracking, sensing, and control solutions, today announced that it has secured funding from Main Street Capital Corporation (“Main Street”) and an investment entity controlled by Roy W.

“We feel as though we’re in the right place at the right time – offering patented and award winning technology to large and profitable companies that see the value and the ROI that our solutions provide,” said Crossno. “Since 2006, we’ve worked diligently to bring our technology to this point, and the funding we’ve secured will enable us to ramp up our sales, marketing and manufacturing capabilities, to meet the growing demand for our solutions.”

Main Street Capital Corporation is a principal investment firm that partners with management teams to provide comprehensive long-term debt and equity capital solutions to growth companies. Main Street’s Hartman, who has worked for several Main Street investment entities, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Deloitte & Touche, now brings his considerable consulting and institutional financing experience to OnAsset’s Board of Directors.
