See Seesmic Seize Cash
By Mark Evans | February 13, 2008
Seesmic, the video-service that Loren Feldman loves to hate, has raised $6-million.
That’s a big accomplishment given the video market is ultra-competitive and Seesmic is trying to jump-start the rather strange idea of having video conversations. But what’s more impressive is the list of investors. It’s like an all-star team featuring players from Web 1.0 and Web 2.0:
* The lead investor is Atomico - a group founded by Niklas Zennström and Janus Friis.
* Michael Arrington - Founder, TechCrunch
* Steve Case - Co-Founder and former CEO and Chairman, AOL
* Jeff Clavier - Managing Partner, SoftTech VC
* Ron Conway - Early investor, Google
* Steve Garfield - video blogger
* Dan Gillmor - Director, Knight Center for Digital Media Entrepreneurship
* Reid Hoffman - Founder, LinkedIn
* Michael Parekh - Managing Director, Goldman Sachs
* Mark Pincus - Co-Founder and former Chairman and CEO, SupportSoft
* Ariel Poler - Founder and former CEO, IPRO and Topica
* Jeff Pulver - Chairman and Founder, Pulver.com
* Martin Varsavsky - Founder, FON
