France's vpod.tv Taps Varsavsky Investment

vpod.jpgvpod.tv announced in its blog that FON founder Martin Varsavsky has invested an undisclosed amount in the online video publishing-on-demand company. In May, the startup announced that Innovacom had committed $5M to its first round of financing.

As a result of the Varsavsky investment, the Spanish vpod.tv R&D team will move into offices in the same building as FON in Madrid. Besides running FON and writing plots for screenplays, Varsavsky has also taken seed round stakes in Netvibes, an RSS and personal homepage software developer, and Wikio, a French news search and ranking software startup.
