I was teasing the past few days, but the news has been broken by CenterNetworks and VentureBeat and it is showing up nicely on Techmeme.
Outbrain, a company we funded at early stage at Lgilab, is announcing a 12million round series B lead by Carmel Ventures. This is a great news for an Israeli startup in this crisis context. Regardless of the biais of my opinion, Outbrain is one of my favourite blog widget and also a top 10 source of this blog. I won t explain that again i wrote enough post on the matter. If you run a search on Twitter, you'll easily find out bloggers love outbrain. An they are also enjoying a nice user growth as you can see below
I believe content discovery is a big thing, both as a need and business opportunity. Outbrain is focused on doing it right for media publishers. Now they have the resources to prove that.
Good job guys, i am very happy to be on board.
