As a result of the funding Marcus Ogawa of Quest joined the Qik board of directors and Justin Camp of CampVentures became a board observer.  The company raised about $9.5 million in total funding so far.  Other investors include Marc Benioff, Arjun Gupta, George Garrick, Marc Andreessen, and Ben Horowitz.  Qik is based in Redwood City, California and has about 38 employees.

“We as a society continue to ravenously consume engagement media. I feel strongly that mobile video is on the cusp of exploding into the mainstream. I believe Qik, with its support for many different mobile platforms and engagement options, is poised to lead this charge,” stated Marcus Ogawa of Quest.
