This is the Startup Roundup. Every Wednesday morning, Technically Baltimore will put together the smaller pieces that make up our startup ecosystem. If you’ve got news to share, get in touch.

who’s getting funded?

Vii Network, based in Columbia, has raised $1.4 million in equity of an offered $2.25 million, according to SEC filings. The startup provides video-based learning worldwide in a number of fields, including sports and fitness. Technically Baltimore reported on Vii Network in July 2012.

who’s making moves?

  • Inbox Zero web application Mailstrom now allows its users to send e-mail replies directly from the Mailstrom interface. Which means no more switching back and forth between Gmail and Mailstrom to send replies, and then file away e-mails to their respective folders. To quote our nation’s vice president, this is a big #@!$ing deal.
  • Columbia-based cybersecurity firm Tenable Network Security has made its Nessus ProfessionalFeed vulnerability management scanner available for VMware customers, according to a press release. “VMware resellers can sell Tenable’s … Nessus ProfessionalFeed to vSphere infrastructure customers,” according to the release.
  • Federal Hill-based incubator Betamore launched a new website this week.
  • Edtech startup 1sqbox delivered a set of its proprietary, Android-based tablets, loaded with the 1sqbox classroom-management software, to the Baltimore Leadership School for Young Women on Tuesday.
Full disclosure: Betamore cofounder Mike Brenner is a partner with Technically Baltimore, which works on occasion from the Federal Hill incubator.
