BlackBerry Partners Fund Invests in Xobni and we’ve launched Xobni 1.7. No more Beta!

xobni1_7_checklistIn early January we announced that Xobni completed a $7 million Series B led by Cisco Systems. Today we are happy to announce that BlackBerry Partners Fund has also joined our Series B, increasing the total investment round to over $10 million. See the official press release here. Additionally, BlackBerry Partners Fund partner Rick Segal will be joining our board of directors. We’d like to officially welcome Rick to the team.

This investment will allow us to strengthen our service and extend Xobni to new platforms for our customers. The next stage of development will focus on the launch of our premium service later this summer.

This funding announcement comes at a time when we have other very exciting news to share. Today Xobni goes “gold.” The beta label is coming off and version 1.7 is now available to everyone.

The Series B took a while to close, but eventually they did. Having Blackberry and Cisco as strategic investors will do wonders for the young firm. Being a Crackberry user myself, this is indeed an interesting development. Link to my previous post on Xobni.
