Fon is not Moving to Silicon Valley
I have been getting comments from people asking if we are moving to Silicon Valley as a result of our investment round. While we love the creativity and energy in the Bay Area and we have tremendous admiration for the global talent that has gathered over there, we are not moving away from Spain. We love being a Spanish technology company and we are staying in Spain. Something else. There was a misunderstanding vis a vis Speakeasy. Speakeasy allows FON but they are not our partners. Our partners are Google, Skype, Index Ventures and Sequoia quite a team as it stands!

You might want to join hands with Tropos and other similar companies for partnership. I have detailed on my blog on why that makes sense.

Patil,
Agreed! We have written to the people at Tropos. They seemed to be a great company we could collaborate with them.
