Board of Directors Provides Initial Funds for New Financing Initiative

CUPERTINO, CA—August 17, 2017 - Inventergy Global, Inc. (OTCQB: INVT) (the “Company”), announced today that all members of its Board of Directors (“Board”) committed an aggregate $100,000 of new non-dilutive financing to fund the Company’s operations.
