RadiumOne, an online ad network that aims to combine social and intent data to serve ads, has raised
$21 million in Series B funding led by
Crosslink Capital, with
DFJ Esprit,
Adams Street Partners and
Trinity Ventures participating in the round. This latest round brings RadiumOne's total funding to
$33.5 million. Although the company declined to name the valuation in the round, we heard from industry sources that the network's valuation was roughly $200 million (we heard one online company tried to buy RadiumOne for $250 million). RadiumOne was founded by serial entrepreneur and
gWallet founder
Gurbaksh Chahal. Chahal sold his ad network
BlueLithium to Yahoo for $300 million in 2007 and at the time, Chahal's company was the fifth largest ad network in the United States and the second largest in the United Kingdom. Chahal's non-compete contract with Yahoo ended in October 2010, and he got back into
the online ad business with RadiumOne. Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/PUgieGgap0k/
