Yodo1

Chinese mobile game publisher Yodo1 has secured US$11 million in Series B funding. The investment round was led by GGV Capital, and included new investors Pavilion Capital and Iris Capital. GGV partner Jenny Lee will also join Yodo1’s board of directors.

As reported earlier, Singapore’s SingTel helped Yodo1 secure US$5 million in Series A funding in July.



Yodo1 currently helps Western game studios localise their titles for China’s mobile market, and plans to use the additional funding to expand operations in Japan and Korea, leading markets by revenue for Android developers. “Android is definitely where the money is in the foreseeable future,” said Yodo1 CEO Henry Fong.
