| Curse Expands with $5 Million in Funding from AGF Private Equity Curse has received $5 million in Series-A funding from leading French venture capital firm AGF Private Equity and angel investors. The deal helps to further secure Curse's position as the leading MMOG destination, giving advertisers access to an in-demand and difficult to target demographic. The Series-A funding puts Curse in the distinctive position of the only MMOG portal with the resources necessary to develop inventive technologies, and provide the Web 2.0 features and content that the online game community demands. Terms of the funding enable Curse to retain operational and creative control. Prior to the Series-A funding, Curse raised more than $800,000 through an angel round of funding in December 2006. Curse recently launched its newest version, V4. The release marks a significant step towards realizing Curse's ambitious goal to serve the online gaming community with a suite of essential features not found elsewhere. From image and video uploading, to blogging and social bookmarking, V4 brings Web 2.0 to the MMOG space in an unparalleled way. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Game News :: home page |
