NODE, part of “hackathon,” raises $1.25 million in Series A
Alex Lavidge alerted us this week to two significant events in the short life of Chattanooga-based Variable Inc., developer of the NODE modular wireless sensor platform.
- First, the company closed a Series A funding round of $1.25 million. More information is available at http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20130603005988/en/Variable-Raises-1.25-Million-in%C2%A0Series-Funding-Wireless.
- Second, Variable joined with Evernote, Leap Motion and Honda Silicon Valley Lab to host a “hackathon” in Redwood City, CA last Sunday where mobile apps were developed, including some using the NODE.
