Ottawa-based Versature announced Tuesday it had raised another $675,000 in debt and bank financing, bringing the total of the last three rounds to $1 million.

“This financing will allow Versature the flexibility to grow organically or through strategic acquisitions, as opportunities present themselves,” Versature CEO Paul Emond said in a statement. “We believe this highly fragmented industry is ripe for consolidation and Versature intends to be a leader in this space.”
