Who’s behind it?
Feedalpha was set up 18 months ago by Jane Kavanagh and Gary Evans, who were looking to add value to their clients by providing great content, while also saving time by managing all their social media accounts in one place.
A husband and wife team based in Carlow, Jane and Gary were running their digital agency and struggled to find great content to share online to their customers.
Gary, with 25 years experience in IT and big data analytics, and Jane, with experience running companies across several countries, decided to build a platform that makes finding relevant content to share on social media easy.
How is it funded?
To date, Feedalpha has been mainly self funded with some help from their Local Enterprise office. They are currently starting a seed investment round that will allow them to build on the success of the company so far.
Future plans?
Their next steps are to grow the Irish team and add more social media channels to their platform. They have a long list of new features currently in development and plan to stage releases throughout the year. They also plan to start targeting the US market in Q2 of this year.
