			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you a developer that knows the iPhone SDK and/or Android  inside and out?  Have you been spending too many Friday nights  perfecting every line of code?  Are you a graphic designers dream?We&#8217;re looking for a rock-star iPhone and/or Android Developer ready to immerse  themselves in the start-up experience.  Someone who is willing to prove  they have what it takes to step into the ring, and follow through on  what they say.</p>
<p>Our company is in stealth start-up mode with the ideas everyone wants,  and we&#8217;re looking for the perfect match to help crunch some code.</p>
<p>Our team is a small group of driven, high-level professionals already  working in the industry.  We don&#8217;t mind burning through nights and  weekends to build the products, and the company we&#8217;re passionate about.   There&#8217;s no entitlement attitude in this bunch.  Just a select few who  know what it means to work hard, and dream outside the box.</p>
<p>The ideal candidate should have experience as a developer with extensive knowledge of Objective-C, and  REST-ful web services.  Additionally, they will  have experience in coding iPhone Apps with successful submission to the  App Store.  The candidate must also be able to come up with and  implement solutions on their own, and be able to effectively communicate  with all other team-members and stakeholders on a daily basis.</p>
<p>Please email us jobs@labotec.com</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Miami, FL (March 15, 2010) Labotec announced today that it has secured a round of funding from major strategic partner Kima Ventures, founded by Jeremie Berrebi (Zlio, Net2One) and Xavier Niel (Free,Iliad). Europe-based fund<a href="http://www.kimaventures.com"> Kima Ventures</a> joins <a href="http://www.kipost.com">Kipost</a> and<a href="http://fs.gs"> FS Ventures</a> as an investor in Labotec. The company plans to use the funds to accelerate growth in all areas of its business and to support its plans for massive scale in 2010.</p>
<p>Labotec is pioneering a new form of mobile applications publishing based on crowd-sourced ideas. Since its recent inception, Labotec has received hundreds of new project ideas from 27 countries. 3 applications have already launched (iSOS for Android, iMove2Music for iPhone, FakeSMS for iPhone) and 20 are slated for release by the end of the year. Labotec engages with innovators that have always dreamed to see their ideas commercialized and be given the right tools to succeed in the marketplace.</p>
<p>&#8220;Mobile applications are becoming a must-have for subscribers and  carriers, Labotec has the potential to turn an idea into a great  business&#8221; said <a href="http://twitter.com/jberrebi">Jeremie Berrebi</a>, partner in  Kima Ventures.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our goal is to produce a user-oriented portfolio of applications on  mobile devices such as iPhone/iPad/iPod, Android or BlackBerry&#8221; explains  <a href="http://twitter.com/florianseroussi">Florian Seroussi</a>,  Labotec co-founder.</p>
<p>&#8220;Kima Ventures and its founders bring another  layer of   opportunities  we couldn&#8217;t approach until now&#8221; says <a href="http://twitter.com/pocarles">Pierre-Olivier Carles</a>, CEO of     Kipost.</p>
<p>According to research analyst Research2guidance, the    surge in  applications will be driven by a fast-growing number of    smartphone  users, estimated to increase from about 100 million in 2009    to nearly 1  billion by 2013. Yearly application revenues will rise   from  US$1.94  billion (2009) to US$15.65 billion in only four years,    according to most  recent research findings.</p>
