Hedge Fund Manager Lead a $2.5m in Series B Funding for Gameface Media
A group of prominent individual investors including successful entrepreneurs, hedge fund managers and venture capitalists from Boston, New York and the San Francisco Bay Area provided a $2.5 million in series B funding for Gameface Media Inc., the largest provider of free amateur sporting event photos in the world.
Gameface
Media plans to make strategic investments in product development,
sales, marketing and client services with this round of funding.
Gameface
Media delivers unique branded images of participants looking their best
whether that be ripping down a mountainside, running through a wall of
fire or finishing a marathon. Rather than charging as much as $60 for
these images, Gameface Media provides all photos for free to
participants thereby creating authentic social content that generates
millions of impressions for brand marketers and event organizers. The
Company has received positive feedback from event directors and
participants alike at top race events including the San Francisco
Marathon, Warrior Dash, Shamrock Run Portland and Rugged Maniac.
