Mobile messaging app Pinnatta closes $1.5 million round of funding for platform expansion

Mobile messaging platform Pinnatta has announced it has received a new round of Series A funding from Greek venture capital firms Odyssey Venture Partners and PJ Tech Catalyst. The $1.5 million round of funding will see the company continuing to operate its offices in Sunnyvale, California and Athens, Greece.

The Pinnatta platform offers interactive multimedia, as users can send each other interactive messages. In a birthday message, for instance, users may send someone a cake with lit candles that must be blown out using a smartphone’s microphone.
