Cambridge-based local information site operator CityVoter Inc. has $1.58 million in a new equity funding round, federal documents show.
The filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission shows six backers in the round, although they are not identified by name. Previous investors have included Allen & Co. LLC and Dace Ventures LP. Board member David Andonian, founder of Dace Ventures, is listed as a related person in the SEC document, as is David Faschen of Newton’s Castanea Partners. On its website, CityVoter only mentions Dace and Allen & Co. as investors, however.
Both Dace and Allen & Co. were involved in CityVoter’s most recent round, when it raised a $2.6 million Series B round of venture capital funding in 2008.
Founded in 2005, CityVoter says it offers specific local information in 40 cities across the United States, down from the 55 cities it cited in 2008. The company also says it lists 9,000 businesses over those 40 cities, and has had more than 400,000 votes ranking those businesses.
As of March, CityVoter CEO and founder Joshua Walker said that the company had 11 employees. The company is based in an old auto garage near Central Square in Cambridge. Attempts to reach CityVoter were unsuccessful this morning.
