WeeWorld gets more than a wee bit

British digital identity company, WeeWorld just closed on a $15.5 million second round of funding from Accel and Benchmark. CEO Celia Francis said the London-based firm will use the funds to expand its presence in the U.S., support further advertising and sponsorship deals, and achieve what she jokingly refers to as "WeeWorld domination." 9 million users have already created "WeeMees" - digital avatars that represent a person's identity online and on mobile devices.
As part of their expansion plans, they have hired local product and marketing whiz Lauren Bigelow as General Manager for North America. So look for the Wee little Boston-area office to start ramping up soon. Full disclosure: I've known and worked with Lauren Bigelow for the last 15-odd years. She's one of the best.
