MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Feb. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- VIMOC Technologies, Inc. today announced it has completed the first closing of its initial round of seed funding for $2.4 million led by early-stage investor Morado Ventures. Other investors participating in the round include Flex Lab IX and ET Capital Partners, along with several angels including Ted Lachowicz, Eugene Rosenfeld and Glenn Turner. Capital raised will help the company meet existing demand for products and services as well as the expansion of product offerings for "Smart City" infrastructure and services.  The company plans to complete the final closing in February.

"VIMOC's approach to Landscape Computing is an important part of how the billions of connected devices that are part of the Internet of Things will drive understanding of the data being collected at scale," said Ash Patel, founding partner of Morado Ventures.

VIMOC's distributed computing platform extends cloud computing near the edge of the network, offering high-scalability, security and cost-effective management of smart infrastructure services. By migrating intelligence closer to the edge of the network, the very environment in which we live becomes the computer.
