Pod Network Picks Up $5M For Social Media App

Manhattan Beach-based Pod Network, which says it is developing a mobile, social media network which connects users based on their physical location, plus professional and personal interests, has raised $5M in a seed funding. The company said the round was led by PACA Ventures and Anthony Misitano, founder of Post Acute Medical. The startup, led by founder and CEO Dr. Jo Webber, says its location-based platform facilitates the discovery and connection of people based on interests and location, with the intent to allow people to connect in person or virtually. The company claims it already has 5 million users.
