Sony Innovation Fund, the reorganised corporate venturing unit for the eponymous electronics group, invested an undisclosed amount in Japan-based cybersecurity startup Caulis last month.
Sony’s other Japan-based investment from the fund is in electrostimulation device maker Happy Hacking Life (H2L).
The firm’s US deals include a previously undisclosed investment in Sliver.tv, a virtual reality platform aimed at e-sports which is backed by a range of corporates, and which raised $16m last month. Its other US portfolio companies include AirMap, Cogitai, DefinedCrowd and Digilens.
