Infochimps raises $2.78 million of a $3 million offering, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Austin Business Journal reported the “filing is an update to an April 2012 report in which the company received $305,000 of a planned $1.3 million financing from six investors.’
“In 2010, about a year after it started, Infochimps got $1.2 million in funding from venture capital firm, DFJ Mercury. This followed $375,000 in seed financing from angel investors,” according to this profile Susan Lahey did on the company last year.
In addition to the financing, Infochimps also announced that it added Burke Kaltenberger as vice president of worldwide sales and Dave Spenhoff as vice president of marketing.
Infochimps started out as a data marketplace but has since pivoted and now provides data management products to companies.
