Pressplane closes $1.7 million Series A financing led by Second Avenue Partners!
Pressplane is the latest company to be hatched by us here at Curious Office and we are pleased to announce the closing of our funding today!
Our $1.7 million Series A financing was led by Second Avenue Partners but we have a roster of other great investors:
Mika Salmi (MTV President / AtomFilms founder)
Rich Barton (Founder, Expedia / Zillow)
Erik Blachford (former Expedia CEO)
Andy Liu (BuddyTV)
Alex Algard (Founder, Whitepages)
Geoff Entress (Madrona)
Andy Sack
Adrian Hanauer (MLS Soccer, Curious Office co-founder)
John Cunningham
Dough Rowan (former Corbis CEO)
Unfortunately, I can’t say exactly what we are working on but I can say it is another “buy and sell marketplace” like our last company (Imagekind) but more around designers and creative content serving businesses. We’re obviously not competing with our new Imagekind owners (CafePress) but we are able to take what we learned from Imagekind and apply much of it to this new initiative.
Mika Salmi at MTV joins Mike Slade from Second Avenue on our board and we can be found diligently working away in these offices on 911 Western which we share with Wishpot.com Come by and say hi sometime!
