The round consisted exclusively of all of Siano’s existing investors: JVP, DFJ-Tamir-Fishman, Star Ventures, Walden Israel, and Bessemer Venture Partners. The fourth round of funding brings the company’s total to $75.5 million.
Siano develops and markets semiconductor chips for reception of digital TV on mobile, portable and hand-held devices for standards in China, Brazil and Europe. These include DVB-T/H, T-TMB, DAB/DAB+ and ISDB-T. It does not list the U.S. standard for mobile DTV, ATSC M/H among those it serves.
