fring, the leading mobile Internet community and communication service, just closed 3rd significant round of funding to accelerate fring’s growth, openness and business activities. All previous fring investors participated in this round including U.S. based North Bridge Venture Partners, Pitango Venture Capital, Veritas Venture Partners and VenFin Limited.

This additional funding will be used to continue making fring more easily accessible and relevant to users and partners. With more supported platforms, devices, add-on services contributed by developers worldwide, continuously improved usability and rich features, fring is turning the mainstream mobile device into the social nexus for users to share, interact and communicate with all their cross-community mobile and online friends.

For example, fring users share experiences with friends on Facebook, Twitter, Last.fm and more, while communicating via Skype, MSN Messenger, GoogleTalk, Yahoo!, AIM and ICQ among others, and further enhanced with functional and location based services like WeFi, all through a single social experience from their simple fring interface on their mobile device.

“With this new investment all our investors recognize our leadership in this emerging paradigm shift, and demonstrate their long-term commitment to our vision. We plan to add to the fring experience and make it an ever more central part of fringsters’ social lives” said by Avi Shechter, fring co-founder and CEO.
