June 12, 2018//-FundedByMe has had an office in Poland since April this year. This summer it is launching its first Polish crowdfunding case, Blinkee.city.
The app has been up and running in 8 Polish cities as well as in Budapest, now they want to offer scooters for rent in Stockholm.
We believe that the Blinkee team is world class, their execution is brilliant. They are growing very fast, from 0 to 600 scooters over the first 1,5 year without external investments.
And what is worth mentioning – they are already profitable at this stage. Being both disruptive and eco-friendly, we are really optimistic about FundedByMe Poland’s first campaign aiming for Blinkee’s expansion into the Nordic countries, says Maciej Gajewski, CEO at FundedByMe Poland.
For a couple of months now, there has been an office in Warsaw Poland and now they are launching their first crowdfunding round with Polish entrepreneurs on the platform. They are hoping that other companies recognize the advantages of equity crowdfunding and that blinkee.city will become the first of many successful Polish campaigns.
— Poland has a very exciting market and the team running the Polish office are enormously driven and well connected. We are extra excited to see that the first case launched is for electric vehicles as this is the future and we at FundedByMe are especially good at crowdfunding electric vehicle companies. If the first case is this cool, imagine the rest of the cases to be launched. Cool cases and a huge market of investors create a very good combination, says Daniel Daboczy, CEO och co-founder of FundedByMe.
Blinkee.city has been a success in many polish cities and now they are looking to expand to Stockholm as well.
