Thursday October 25, 2012 , 2 min Read

Vizury Interactive, a digital marketing technology company, today announced that it has raised close to USD 9 Million in its Series B round of funding. The funding was led by Nokia Growth Partners (NGP) with participation from existing investors Ojas Ventures and Inventus Capital Partners. Existing angel investors who led the seed round of funding also continue to remain invested. The funds will be used to strengthen the company’s presence across Asia, Australia and South America, step up R&D efforts and drive product innovations.

This has a dramatic, positive impact on conversions. With VRM, Vizury has witnessed a remarkable 450% growth over the past year. Vizury’s media partners include some of the world’s largest ad exchanges, ad networks, DSPs, SSPs and technology driven marketplaces.
