We’re funded!
We know that we have been pretty quiet lately about our progress, and there is a good reason for that: we’ve been busy finalizing the details for our Series A round of funding. Well, we’re happy to report that it’s done: Brightkite is officially funded!
That’s all we’re going to reveal for now about our funding, but to make up for the lack of details, there are some other news: we just moved into new office space, not too far from the Denver Ballpark neighborhood.
Here’s a snapshot:
We’re friendly, so drop by and say hi if you’re in the area. If not, you can keep tabs on what’s going on at our office by checking it out on Brightkite.
Of course, you’re probably wondering where we’re at with the product. We’ve been in private beta for a little while now, and we’ve learned a lot. Based on our findings, we’re making some improvements to the site and our mobile versions, and will open up the beta to a much broader audience in the next few months. So please, bear with us…you won’t be disappointed!

Congrats guys!!
Congrats on the funding! It seems you found a way to get the ever so popular Ikea start-up furniture to Denver!
Congratulations guys. You must be excited. New office space looks great. Now get busy making your investors a bunch of $$.
congratulations, you guys! you’ve worked hard on a great idea and you deserve this!
I must say congratulations to you folks. I just started checking out your site about a week ago and I must say it is impressive. We are working on a similar project that takes in all sectors as a whole, with a social networking platform. It will be launched shortly. So you guys explode your horizon and bring in the bucks.
Sol wanted me to tell you “you are welcome” he would tell you himself but he doesn’t have email.
Great to hear guys! I just got an invite from one of my Ars Technica coworkers and this is a great service! Love what you’re doing. I live up in Westminster too; you guys taking visitors anytime soon? ;)
Your location link (to ) is not working; I get a Page not Found.
Link has been updated. Thanks for spotting that, Michael :)
Great job! – loving ya work so far.
Hey, looks like a great place. Will you guys be around on Thursday? I’d love to stop by and see it. If not, maybe I’ll see you guys at RailsConf!
Pretty sweet digs you got there. All any startup needs is a couple of REALLY nice chairs!
