QuizJam completes successful trials
"QuizJam has had an amazing quarter, the most successful in the platformâs two-year history" according to Joel Steel, the Founder and CEO of Gravy Gaming which has produced QuizJam. "The Commonwealth Bank has just completed a trial using QuizJam for Teams, the West Coast Eagles successfully partnered with QuizJam and Legacy for an ANZAC Day trivia tournament. and we have been accepted as part of the Plus Eight accelerator hub in Perth.
The company has considerably bolstered its board and advisors with world-class talent including:
⢠Appointing the Technical Co-Founder of Fetch TV Gary Walker as Non Executive Director. Walker has also invested in the company
⢠Phill Claxton â A globally recognised product and growth specialist who lead the IT Glue team from 600 accounts to 2300 and a $8.5 million ARR in just over a year.
⢠Bryony Cole - Ran the thought leadership and community program at Yammer for three years prior to its $1.2 billion trade sale to Microsoft.
⢠Carl Hurd, the Vice President of Sales, Australia Pacific at Ericsson.
âIt has been a whirlwind couple of months for us, interacting with some major brands which builds on our already strong foundations through one of our first clients, carsales.com.au, and a strategic partnership with the worldâs fifth largest communications company Havas,â Steel said.
He said securing a place in the Plus Eight accelerator program was a major coup. The Plus Eight accelerator is a partnership between WA's leading startup hub, Spacecubed, Telstra's accelerator muru-D, 7 West Media, and Hawaiian Group, bringing a global network of mentors, investors and partners to support high growth startups.
âThis is an amazing opportunity for us not only to be recognised as a company that has global potential with the ability to scale quickly but muru-D opens us up to world-class mentors including Tim Brewer, a former Channel Advisor at DropBox.
âWe also get to tap into global networks including direct access to Silicon Valley venture capital as well as six months acceleration support based on muru-Dâs global program.â
âWhile we have that start-up tag, we have started to realise revenue across several areas of the business which we are confident will accelerate in the coming months and we are looking to raise capital to help us to ramp up our marketing efforts and implement our growth strategy.â
