Venture Capital
Hyderabad-based social media and chat entertainment platform Samosa Labs has raised $7 million (Rs 48 crore) in a fresh funding round from handset maker Xiaomi and venture capital firm Sequoia Capital India, a top company executive told TechCircle. The startup will use the funds to ramp up its bandwidth capabilities, Abhilash Inumella, co-founder and chief executive of the venture, said in a telephonic conversation. “Since the primary touchpoints on our platform are videos, bandwidth capabilities become imperative in our business.
