StockTwits Grabs $4 Million More In Inside Round
In 2009 they broke off from Twitter, launching their own messaging platform. They acquired a financial news hub early this year, and then launched a private company product as well.
Yep, those days as a simple Twitter filter are long behind them.
Cofounder and CEO Howard Lindzon tells us the company had another milestone today – a $4 million venture round from existing investors Foundry Group and True Ventures. That brings the total capital raised by the company to $8.6 million.
The funds will be used to hire more engineers and develop product more speedily, says Lindzon. And more updates are coming soon.
