Breather, a company that provides short-term rentable office spaces, raised $45M in its latest funding round.

Menlo Ventures led the round, the company announced Tuesday, and Caisse de Depot et placement du Quebec, which owns Ivanhoé Cambridge, and Singapore based-investment companies Ascendas-Singbridge and Temasek also participated in the funding round.

Its Series C funding round, also led by Menlo Ventures, raised $40M. In total, the Montreal-based firm has now raised $120M. Founded by Caterina Rizzi and Julien Smith, Breather offers short-term office space that can be rented by the hour, day or month.
