'Signia Venture Partners offers MomentFeed a unique combination of operational and investor experience,' said MomentFeed CEO Robert Blatt. 'The addition of Ed to our board and the continued strong support of our existing investors enable us to scale to meet market demand while continuing to deliver the highest levels of customer satisfaction.'
'The vision for MomentFeed has always been to address the transformation of marketing being driven by the mobile consumer,' said Rob Reed, MomentFeed founder. 'In this new era, there is now a digital presence for each physical location where consumers spend the majority of their money. We are providing a platform to leverage this new marketing asset so big brands can enjoy all the advantages of a local business with the scale of a national or global footprint. This is the promise of MomentFeed.'
