Boulder-based lighting startup raises $200,000

A commercial lightning company looking to create more aesthetically pleasing lighting solutions for architects and designers recently raised $200,000 in capital. Although still in pre-patent development stages, Boulder-based SoftForm Lighting LLC is raising the funds to design and create a prototype product, CEO Mark Ricketson told BizWest. Eventually, the small startup plans to raise $500,000, which will go to production. “Our target market is the design side of the business, primarily architects, interior designers and lighting designers,” Ricketson said.
