Crunchbase Finds $2M More, Clamps Down On Data Access

San Franciso-based Crunchbase, the provider of crowd-source investment data that was spun out of AOL last year, has raised $2M in a Series A2 round, the company said today, and put in place some major pricing and data access plans. The funding came from Salesforce Ventures, Felicis Ventures, Cowboy Ventures, SV Angel, and 8 Partners.
