Mumbai Angels led this round of funding, joined by Blume Ventures, India Venture Partners (Mauritius) and Christopher Preinz and Associates (EU). The total amount of 1 Million USD is the largest investment by Mumbai Angels. Anil Joshi, VP, Mumbai Angels says, "Mumbai Angels has the vision of supporting startups that foster innovation and push boundaries of the domain they work on. We are very glad to support UMA - Some of the technologies that they work on will power next generation of mobile and wireless devices, and we are confident they'll emerge as a major global player in the 4G/LTE domain."

UMA has also expanded their marketing/sales to Japan, and are working on some key partnerships in that region. Arun, Co-Founder, UMA says, "Access to capital at this juncture will help UMA expand its engineering, marketing/sales and R&D activities. We are very excited to partner with Mumbai Angels, and we are confident that their wide network of Angels will help us with key partnerships apart from the capital!"

Ashpi Gupta, who led this round from Mumbai Angels quoted, "We are glad to see the next generation of startups emerge, on domains like 4G wireless in India, which were only previously limited to the Valley. It is a healthy trend, and we are confident that our investment in UMA will encourage more founders to start more such ventures."
