We were interested to read about the
mobile search partnership being forged between Verizon Communications Inc. and Google Inc. But what jumped out at us in the Wall Street Journal article was that mobile search provider Medio Systems Inc. would serve as the technological go-between for the partners. Sounds like a pretty sweet gig for a four-year-old, venture backed startup.
So who the heck is Medio? Here's what we know. It was founded in 2004, is based in Seattle and has raised at least $45 million in venture funding.
Financial backers include Accel Partners; Mohr, Davidow Ventures; Dot Edu Ventures; Frazier Technology Ventures; and Triology Equity Partners. It has an existing partnership with Verizon to manage digital searches, and
has ambitious plans to expand its existing overseas business.
