US-based visualisation technology developer BlueStacks has raised $13m on Wednesday in a roundled by Samsung Ventures, the corporate venture capital arm of eletronics manufacturer Samsung.
The round also included the corporate venturing units of wireless technology company Qualcomm and semiconductor producer Intel, chipmaker AMD and venture capital firms Andreessen Horowitz and Ignition Partners.
BlueStacks recently debuted its Gamepop platform, which allows users to take mobile gaming to their living rooms by displaying Android-based apps on their televisions.
The company received about $1m from Intel Capital in May 2013, after Qualcomm invested an undislosed seven-figure amount in 2012.
Bluestacks raised $7.6m in a May 2011 series A round from Andreessen Horowitz, Ignition Ventures, Helion Ventures, Radar Partners, and Redpoint Ventures, and $6.4 in a series B round in October that year from AMD, software developer Citrix Systems, Andreessen Horowitz, Ignition, Radar Partners and Redpoint Ventures.
