Sifteo Closes $9M in Funding

Congrats to Dave, Jeevan, and the rest of the Sifteo team for closing their round! peHUB broke the story here today. We are also very excited to be working with the Foundry team again, whom we have worked closely with in the past.

Since we first funded the initial seed round with Dave and Jeevan back in 2009, the company has made tremendous progress. With the growth in smartphones, social gaming and the introduction of the iPad, people’s interaction with computers has become much more tactile in nature. At the same, people’s love for traditional tabletop games such as Legos or Mah-Jong has not faded. Sifteo represents the future of play while for the first time truly bridging these two worlds. What’s even more exciting is that the possibilities are endless as far as what users will be able to experience on the platform. We very much look forward to partnering with Dave and Jeevan to help make their vision a reality.

Dave and Jeevan’s thoughts on the funding as well as their TED talk can be found here and here.
