Acto, the Canada-based developer of a medical product engagement platform, completed an $11.5m series A round yesterday backed by enterprise software provider Salesforce through corporate venturing subsidiary Salesforce Ventures.

Growth equity firm Resolve Growth Partners led the round, which also featured venture capital firm Panache Ventures.
