ANN ARBOR – EDF Ventures has completed a $12 million venture financing round in VoEx, a leading global IP communications innovator located in Grand Rapids.
VoEx serves as a VoIP interconnect, enabling different VoIP networks to be interconnected. This minimizes TDM traffic for calls between VoIP networks as well as dial-out and dial-in calls, while offering end users rich VoIP-enabled web services.
To deliver this, the company offers partners an integrated, on-demand suite of VoIP applications, management tools and network services that deliver VoIP-based peering, interworking, transcoding, trunking, billing, registry and enhanced telephony services for large, communications-intensive organizations.

VoEx’s current customers include the largest global IP-based voice communities as well as Tier 1 and 2 carriers, universities and enterprises. The Series B financing will be used to fuel continued global revenue growth, expansion of the VoEx carrier registry and the integrated delivery of advanced IP-based voice and messaging applications to its voice services and online community customers.
VoEx provides mission critical core network VoIP services to large communications services providers, universities, large enterprises and VoIP applications developers. VoEx’s platform is a highly scalable, intelligent technology platform which provides a flexible and interoperable network architecture enabling VoIP origination and termination as well as cross connections across VoIP islands and between the VoIP and traditional telephony systems.
