Standoutjobs raises $2 million from iNovia Capital (19)

January 28th, 2008 · by Heri · startups

Standoutjobs has announced they received a 2 million $ funding from iNovia Capital, which does seed and early stage venture capital investments. This is a significant investment and speaks in itself about Standoutjobs’s team’s skills and continuous efforts. This is also the first major move from iNovia that I know of, after they relaunched from the previous MSBi name.

They also launched today, and received coverage on every main technology blog, namely Techcrunch, VentureBeat, Mashable, GigaOm and CenterNetworks. So far, they received very positive reviews about the new “RECEPTION” product.

These announcements mean they now have significant time, money and media attention ahead of them to promote and commercialize their product. I know the startup’s founders were spending a lot of efforts looking for investors; as for now, they can now focus on the product itself.

I joked once with Fred Ngo how they were going to promote their service, to which he replied Ben Yoskovitz is going to put all his marketing weight into it.

And boy did he deliver. Today is certainly Standoutjobs’ day.

Congrats to iNovia and Standoutjobs!
