The Company: BroadJump is a provider of solutions and services for DSL, cable, and wireless broadband providers. BroadJump software automates the interactions between broadband service providers, content providers, and subscribers by streamlining installation, managing the broadband connection and facilitating fulfillment of new services. This automation significantly reduces operating costs while giving broadband service providers a more effective way of creating sustainable revenues. The software and support automation market can be divided into three segments: deployment solutions, service solutions, and maintenance. BroadJump's primary strength is in the connectivity and deployment software and services.

Financial Support: Techxas Ventures led a Series A investment round and helped organize a syndicate of other value-added investors over multiple rounds, including Austin Ventures, Accel Partners, SBC, Nortel, and Bellsouth. 

Operational Support: The founders of BroadJump originally approached Techxas Ventures because they valued Mike LaVigna's extensive communications industry expertise, including 12 years as President and Chief Operating Officer of Bolt, Beranek, and Newman during their build out of the ARPANET. Mike joined BroadJump's Board and Techxas has helped in their development including facilitating discussions with major corporate accounts, identifying key sales personnel to hire early on, and facilitating introductions with SBC who became BroadJump's largest DSL customer and the lead strategic investor for the series C financing.

Mike LaVigna played an active role in the completing of the BroadJump merger with Motive Communications.
