Transphorm says that Yaskawa has shipped a 4.5 kW, indoor photovoltaic (PV) inverter, which uses the company's platform. The company is expected annual production of 34,000 of thse systems, which are used to convert photovoltaic, solar energy into AC power. Transphorm said its products have 98% plus peak efficiency than traditional, silicon-based modules, which provides more power and allows for fan-free operation and a smaller size. Transphorm is venture backed by such investors as Google Ventures, Kleiner Perkins Caufield and Byers, Lux Capital, and many others. Typo Ordered To Pay $860K To BlackBerry ---- Los Angeles-based Typo, the startup backed by Ryan Seacrest, has been ordered to pay $860,000 to BlackBerry Ltd, for selling its iPhone case, which had been found likely to infringe on BlackBerry's patents. The fine came as a result of a ruling on Wednesday in San Francisco in the U.S. District court. BlackBerry had claimed that Typo had continued to sell and market its original, iPhone case--which duplicated the distinctive BlackBerry keyboard--even after a court injunction issued last year ordering Typo to stop selling its product. Typo's current product no longer has a distinctive, BlackBerry-style keyboard. MGID: Move to Los Angeles Helped Drive Record Growth ---- Santa Monica-based MGID, which provides native advertising, says its move from New York to Los Angeles earlier this year helped drive "dramatic growth" at the company. MGID said it saw a 21.7 percent increase in its revenues in the fourth quarter of 2014, which it attributed to new products, as well as better access to the large entertainment and lifestyle customers in Los Angeles. The company also said it benefited from mainstream adoption of native ads. MGID moved to Los Angeles in July. Procore Doubles Headcount, Reports Growth ---- Carpinteria-based Procore Technologies, the developer of cloud-based, construction management software let by Tooey Courtemanche, says it more than doubled its headcount in 2014, and also saw record growth in its business. The company did not say how many employees it has now, or provide any details on finances, however, the company's recent Inc. 5000 rating says the company had 2013 revenues of $9.5M, compared with 2010 revenues of $1.5M. Procore recently raised $15M in a Series D funding, which came from Bessemer Venture Partners. Kofax Wins $1.4M Contract From Government Agency ---- Irvine-based Kofax, which provides document handling software, said today that it has scored a $1.4M contract win with a state health and human services agency. Name of the state was not announced. Kofax said the win covers the use of its software for that state's enrollment and eligibility processes. Kofax said its new customer expects to process more than 60 million images within the next two years using its software. LA Clippers Link With DraftKings On Fantasy Basketball ---- The Los Angeles Clippers are getting into fantasy sports, saying Wednesday afternoon that it has partnered with fantasy sports site DraftKings. According to the two, the Clippers will incorporate DraftKings into its video board, LED Courtside signage, game day reception, digital media, and a Fan Contest hosted on DraftKings.com. DraftKings offers up a wide range of fantasy sports games not just in basketball, but in football, baseball, golf, and many other sports. The site offers up daily fantasy sports contests--where players can change their teams every day--and cash payouts. The Boston-based company also has other NBA deals, including the Minnesota Timberwolves, Houston Rockets, Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics. Zingy Launches Uber For Dog Walking ---- In the latest, "Uber-for-X" startup to emerge in the Los Angeles market, online marketplace Zingy said Wednesday that it has officially launched its on-demand, dog walking service. The startup--led by Tobi Skovron--said its service allows owners to request and book a trained and educated dog walker, to walk their dogs on demand. The startup--which soft launched in January--said it separates itself from other pet care services, through personalization, attention to detail, and transparency in its service, which offers up reviews of dog walkers--including complete maps of where and when a dog has been walked, in real time. Skovron is an Australian entrepreneur who the company said previously created the "Pet Loo", an indoor toilet for dogs. http://www.socaltech.com/zingy_launches_uber_for_dog_walking/s-0058840.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------- MARKETPLACE Reach 10000+ readers for 5 days for $250 Post your marketplace ad at: http://www.socaltech.com/postad.html ------------------------------ADVERTISEMENT------------------------------- APPLICATIONS NOW OPEN!

See http://www.socaltech.com/calendar/eventid/24481 February 12, Irvine -- How to Fund Your Lifescience Startup. OCTANe. Fund-raising and partnering for small to medium sized life sciences companies are more challenging in today’s capital sourcing environment. These challenges include a smaller number of venture funds, investors favoring later-stage opportunities and a greater focus on revenue-generating assets. Yet despite these challenges, many early stage and new life science companies are getting funded and completing accelerated financing. Of course, the successful companies start with an attractive product concept or technology that clearly addresses an unmet need. Importantly, however, they also develop a compelling plan and implement the necessary company structuring in advance of the partnering process.
