seeqSteve Sliwa, the former CEO of Insitu Group, the maker of unmanned aerial vehicles that was purchased by Boeing for $400 million, has emerged at a stealthy startup company by the name of Seeq. We came across the startup today in a SEC filing, which indicated that the company, previously operating under the name Nebula 12, had raised $2 million of a $6 million round.

The Seeq Web site offers little detail about the business, and Sliwa’s LinkedIn page simply says that the company — working on “decision support for time-series big-data” — is in stealth mode.
