FON Raises US$13 Million!

We are happy to announce that FON has raised another US$13 million dollars [HK$101.4 million], for a total of around US$35 million raised since our incorporation in Feb 06. Funds were raised from a combination of current investors including Martin Varsavsky and 4 new strategic investors whose identities we will disclose soon.

Proceeds of the round will be used for R&D and growing the number of FON community members around the world. We’re already present in over 80 countries and this new funding will allow us to pursue many of the great ideas everyone has shared!

FON 成功集資一千三百萬美元!

我們很高興地宣佈,FON 剛成功集資了一千三百萬美元(約一億港元),由 2006年 2月到目前為止,FON 一共集資了三千五百萬美元資金。

這些新資金是從現有及新的投資者成功集資得來的,這包括了 Martin Varsavsky 和四個新的策略投資者,他們的身份將會在不久的將來公開。

這些資金將會被使用在研究和開發方面,及用作擴展全球正在迅速增長的 FON 社區。

我們已經成功在全球超過 80 個國家推行 FON 的概念,這些新的資金將容許我們落實推行大家提出的創意構思。
