The Draper Investment Company Presents: Raising Financial Support for C2Call

We at Draper Investment Company pride ourselves on spotting technologies that carry the potential to permeate millions of homes and improve the standards of living in a myriad of ways. In 2010, Draper Investment Company raised funding for one such company, C2Call, a German startup offering web-based calling services that provides a unique offering in the VoIP sector.

Draper Investment Company first took notice of C2Call due to its ease of use. Founded in 2008, C2Call allows users to make calls using its FriendCaller service. Users register for a free FriendCaller account and receive a unique CallMe link. Any other FriendCaller users can call that FriendCaller user for free by simply clicking the CallMe link, eliminating the need for memorizing phone numbers and screen names. To spread awareness of the service, C2Call also allows FriendCaller users to call landlines and cell phones for only cents per minute.

To facilitate C2Call's growth, Draper Investment Company raised funding for the Germany-based startup. Today, C2Call boasts over 900,000 users worldwide. Draper Investment Company foresees C2Call expanding even further due to growing awareness and positive reception to the simplicity of C2Call's FriendCaller service.
