Real-time gaming product Passoker has secured a substantial investment from Venatus Interactive.
The London-based investment company, which focuses on acquiring assets in gaming companies, has bought a 15 per cent share in HighSixes.com, the holding company for Passoker.
Venatus Interactive was formed last year and typically targets young companies like Passoker that have passed the development stage. Managing director Edward H Pfeiffenberger was first alerted to Passoker as a delegate at EiG 2010 in Copenhagen where Passoker won the Start-Up LaunchPad award.
The investment comes as Passoker prepares for the real money launch of the game in February 2011 with Gibraltar-based bookmaker Victor Chandler.
Passoker CEO Stuart Carr commented: "As well as the financial element, which is vital to our ongoing growth, we are also securing a considerable investment of experience and business acumen from Venatus Interactive."
