BuySafe won the Northern Virginia Technology Council's (NVTC) "2005 Hottest Venture Capital Deal" Award last week. The award goes to the company that "offers the most all-around potential for return-on-investment," including a strong management team, great buzz and a winning product or service. BuySafe is a bonding service for eBay sellers and ecommerce merchants. BuySafe received a funding round of $13.25 million in early 2005 led by Grotech Capital and Core Capital Partners, with first-round funders Hartford Ventures and Thomas Rutherfoord, Inc. also investing.
