Facebook Co-Founder Eduardo Saverin Leads Funding for Jumio
Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, whose version of the company’s early history informed the plot of Aaron Sorkin’s “The Social Network” and who still owns five percent of the company, is putting that stake to work. He just led a $6.5 million round of funding in online and mobile payment service Jumio. Saverin, who lives in Singapore, will also join the company’s board and work on its entrance into the Asian market.
