Mixcloud Raises $11.5M From Anthony Saleh’s WndrCo

Mixcloud, a UK based digital audio streaming platform that offers a diverse collection of serialized, long-form, and exclusive audio content has closed their $11.5 million funding round from WndrCo, a holding company that focuses on businesses operating at the intersection of media and technology.

As a result, this funding round gives Mixcloud the opportunity to diversify their platform and expand — two WndrCo partners will join Mixcloud’s board: Ann Daly, former president of DreamWorks Animation, and Anthony Saleh, an investor and artist manager of hip-hop stars Nas and Future.
