Vuclip raises $6M for mobile video search and delivery
Vuclip, a service that allows users to search for and call up videos on their mobile phones, has brought in $6 million in a second round of funding. Once it locates the video you want, it makes it play on a wide range of platforms and devices, regardless of encoding, in 20 seconds or less.
Based in Milpitas, Calif., the company is backed by Jafco Ventures and New Enterprise Associates. It raised $8 million in a first round of venture funding in early 2008.
