Jivox Secures $8.2 Million in Funding to Meet Growing Market Demand for Interactive Video Ads on Multiple Screens

San Mateo, CA (PRWEB) November 01, 2011

Jivox today announced it secured $ 8.2 million in financing to support rapid adoption of its interactive video advertising technology. Fortisure Ventures led the round and existing investors Opus Capital, Helion Advisors and Diaz Nesamoney reaffirmed their commitment to Jivox through their participation. In addition to the new financing, Mani Subramanian, CEO of Fortisure Ventures and John Squires, CEO of Akademos will join Jivoxs Board of Directors.

The industry is at a tipping point as advertisers now understand the need for more engaging and creative interactive ads that reach viewers on multiple screens and across social channels, said Diaz Nesamoney, CEO and founder of Jivox. This strategic investment will allow us to accelerate the rapid adoption of our interactive video advertising platform, which we designed to solve technology complexities of delivering creative and innovative online video ads at scale and on any screen. Additionally, we plan to use this investment to build out our technology platform and realize our vision of bringing interactive ad technologies to all screens.

A new eMarketer forecast estimates mobile ad spending in the US will reach $ 1.23 billion this year, a 65 percent increase over 2010. As such, mobile is increasingly part of the overall ad buy and ensuring video ads effectively run on multiple screens without complexities is no longer an option but a must. Jivox, which currently delivers more than 1,000 interactive video ad campaigns a month, is uniquely positioned to address this market need as it is the only platform that truly enables interactive video ads to run on multiple screens with an ad serving infrastructure that can deliver at scale.

Were very excited about Jivoxs success in the market and see great potential in the companys ability to fundamentally alter the way interactive digital video ads are created, delivered and measured, said Mani Subramanian, CEO of Fortisure Ventures. As an investment firm that prides itself on identifying breakthrough innovators, we believe that Jivoxs unique interactive technology will advance the advertising industry and help bring creativity and innovation to digital video, thereby encouraging more brands to spend on digital media.

In addition to the funding, Jivox announced two new board members:

(PRWEB) November 10, 2011

A new video titled What GE Knew About the Dangers of Asbestos Exposure has been added to the Video Library hosted on the Cohen, Placitella & Roth YouTube Channel and presented by attorney Christopher M. Placitella, partner at the Cohen, Placitella & Roth law firm (cprlaw.com).

The newest video uploaded today consists of a deposition of Marjorie Drucker, a representative of General Electric, and reveals what GE knew about the dangers of asbestos. This individual was deposed in a case involving the wife of a worker who was exposed to the asbestos-containing products on general electric equipment, and later was diagnosed with mesothelioma.

In this deposition, Marjorie Drucker is questioned by attorney Chris Placitella about what GE knew about the asbestos dangers to individuals who worked in their plants since the 1930s. Throughout the interview, the GE representative reveals information about what GE shared with their employees about the dangers of asbestos, documents revealing information on the dangers of asbestos, and also uncovers the fact that GE failed to warn consumers about the potential risks of the asbestos containing products. The video contains excerpts of the deposition which can be viewed in it its entirety at http://www.mesotheliomalegalblog.com/pdf/MarjorieADruckerGEandAsbestosDeposition.pdf.

"The Cohen, Placitella & Roth YouTube Channel allows us to share informational videos with our current clients and potential clients," says Chris Placitella, a partner at Cohen, Placitella & Roth. "But it also allows us to show what happens during a mesothelioma lawsuit, and how various corporations responded to information about asbestos dangers in terms of consumer and worker health and safety."
