VisoCon, a Graz, Austria-based provider of smart video collaboration solutions, received an investment from Hermann Hauser.
Hauser is the co-founder of the British semiconductor company ARM, which was acquired by the Japanese technology company SoftBank for $ 31 billion last year.
The amount of the deal, which will be followed by an additional round with US venture capital firms, was not disclosed.
The company intends to use the funds to expand its flagship product eyeson globally.
Led by Andreas Kröpfl, VisoCon CEO and founder, VisoCon provides eyeson, a cloud-based software solution providing a video conferencing platform for optimizing collaboration. Technically it is based on a patented real-time communication server with Single-Stream-Technology, providing high video and audio quality regardless of the number of participants.
eyeson is already available for several online collaboration tools, such as Slack, Dropbox and Atlassian, and more will follow. Developers can integrate eyeson’s API in their own apps.
