Viigo has announced a new round of funding today. They had previously raised a total of $6.4M and this round, at $1.5M now puts them at a total of $7.9M in angel and VC investment.
The $1.5M, which will go towards developing their latest project, codenamed Tango and which will be launched at WES next week, comes from RBC Venture Partners.
I hear a lot of great reviews of Viigo from Blackberry users.
