(Reuters) - Streetbees, a startup that monitors the emotions of consumers and analyses their purchasing decisions, said on Wednesday it had raised $40 million (30.7 million pounds) from investors to develop its technology platform.

The Series B investment round was led by venture capital investor Lakestar, with participation from Latitude, Atomico, GMG Ventures and Octopus.
