Minicom Advanced Systems, a developer of remote access, KVM, and digital signage solutions, today announced that it would spinout its digital signage division (MDS).

MDS simultaneously announced that it had raised $6 million to finance its operations independently. The investment, which was led by Jerusalem Venture Partners and joined by Aviv Ventures, will enable the new company to broaden its platform from its new offices in Jerusalem’s JVP Media Quarter.

“This investment is the natural next step in MDS’ lifecycle. The support of our investors positions us to explore inorganic growth options and to drive the acceleration of our product roadmap towards the establishment of MDS as a full scale enabling platform in the digital signage market.”, said Ronni Guggenheim, CEO of MDS.

JVP is one of the leading venture capital funds in Israel. The fund operates from Jerusalem and manages over $780 million. It focuses on building market leaders in the fields of digital media technology, including gaming and virtual worlds, mobile media, software and hardware applications and Internet advertising.
