BinOptics Attracts $13M in Funding
BinOptics Corp. has closed on $13.3 million in new funding, which it will use to continue the expansion of its product lines and to accelerate the development of its new products.
Five new investors participated in this round of funding: Advantage Capital Partners, Enhanced Capital Partners, Gefinor Ventures, Onondaga Venture Capital Fund and Rand Capital. They join existing investors ArrowPath Venture Partners, Cayuga Venture Fund, Draper Fisher Jurvetson and FA Technology Ventures.
