blinkwall secures £150k in funding from a Henley Business Angels member to drive marketing and expansion.
The investment will support the modular digital canvas creator in hiring a Chief Sales Officer and scaling paid campaigns.
blinkwall has developed a modular digital canvas system that connects to smartphones for displaying images, videos, and smart home updates.
blinkwall has secured £150k in funding, bolstered by an investment from a member of Henley Business Angels. The capital will support the company as it prepares for commercial rollout, funding new paid marketing initiatives and the appointment of a Chief Sales Officer.
The business has engineered a patented modular hardware system comprising interconnected display tiles, or bricks, managed via a mobile application. The product aims to restore shared physical viewing experiences in homes by moving away from individual smartphone screens towards wall-mounted digital canvases.
With global market entry planned for 2024, the firm intends to target tech-savvy demographics and establish retail partnerships. The fresh injection of capital serves to build pre-order traction and community engagement ahead of the upcoming release.
