Physical  to  digital  startup  SnowShoe  raises  $2.2  Million  in  Series  Seed  Funding     LOS  ANGELES,  3:00PM  PT,  October  14th,  2014  –  SnowShoe,  the  creator  of  unique   plastic  identification  stamps  for  mobile  devices,  announced  today  a  Series  Seed   round  of  $2.2M  led  by  FG  Angels  Syndicate,  the  AngelList  Syndicate  of  Foundry   Group,  among  others.  The  financing  will  be  used  to  fund  SnowShoe’s  continuous   development  of  its  unique  Stamp  technology  and  its  complementary  developer   tools,  along  with  the  development  of  new  turnkey  products  that  make  innovative   use  of  the  technology.     Founded  in  2011,  SnowShoe  specializes  in  creating  magical  pieces  of  plastic,  Stamps,   which  can  be  uniquely  identified  when  touched  to  the  screen  of  a  touch-­‐enabled   mobile  device.  Stamps  have  no  batteries,  power,  circuitry,  antenna,  or  moving  parts,   and  blur  the  boundaries  between  their  digital  and  physical  worlds.       SnowShoe  Stamps  let  software  developers,  product  creators,  and  advertisers  bring   physical-­‐digital  experiences  to  mobile  platforms.  Stamps  work  with  all  multi-­‐touch   mobile  devices,  and  their  software  can  be  integrated  into  projects  in  mere  minutes.       Over  the  last  summer,  the  company  participated  in  the  exclusive  Disney  Accelerator   powered  by  Techstars.  As  one  of  the  carefully  selected  startup  companies  on  the   program,  SnowShoe  tapped  into  a  range  of  creative  expertise  and  resources  of  both   the  Walt  Disney  Company  and  the  Techstars  startup  community.  Coming  out  of   Disney  Accelerator,  the  company  is  gearing  up  to  pilot  its  latest  products  with   several  major  corporate  partners.     The  current  funding  round  investors  are  Foundry  Group  (through  their  AngelList   Syndicate,  FGAngels),  Ludlow  Ventures,  Queensbridge  VC  (the  seed  investment  fund   headed  by  rapper  ‘Nas),  Brian  Lee  (through  his  seed  fund,  Bam  VC),  500S,  Scott   Banister,  Hiten  Shah,  Walt  Winshall,  Pat  Peterson,  Don  Layden,  and  TX  Zhuo,  among   others.     SnowShoe  was  founded  by  Jami  Morton  and  Claus  Moberg  when  they  were  graduate   students  at  the  University  of  Wisconsin,  and  it  is  based  in  Madison,  Wisconsin  and   San  Francisco,  California.  Prior  to  their  participation  in  the  Disney  Accelerator,   SnowShoe  also  participated  in  the  2013  class  of  TechStars  Boulder.       Additional  Information:     http://snow.sh   http://angel.co/snowshoe-­‐stamp     Please  direct  all  press  inquiries  to:   Claus  Moberg  –  608  807  7569  –  [email protected]
