Azuki Rings in $4M

Acton, MA-based mobile software provider Azuki Systems has brought in $4 million of an equity and rights offering that could total $8 million, according to a SEC filing. The firm raised $12 million in equity-based funding earlier this year, and is backed by Kepha Partners and Sigma Partners. In August, cloud computing exec John Clancy started as president and CEO of Azuki, which makes software for the delivery of video and data-rich media content via the mobile. The firm has not yet responded to an inquiry on the newest funding, but we’ll be sure to update this space with any additional details.
