deCarta - Sitting Nicely with New Venture Funding
I spoke briefly with Kim Fennell, CEO and Marc Prioleau, VP Marketing of deCarta about their market growth during the devCON ‘08 event. They feel good that they took the $20 Million is new venture funding as the venture community may be looking a bit more closely at business plans that project revenues too far into the future given today’s economic climate. The market for map servers is certainly shifting as Prioleau sees less of an emphasis in supporting web apps than other opportunities in the mobile space. He notes that Apple’s App Store now counts 300 applications that are "location-enabled."
