7billionideas.com, Exclusive Interview with CEO David Harkin
Summary
They will be able to post ideas for public feedback, gain fantastic market research, engage with their clients and also help build up their images of innovative companies.Once this would be achieved, we felt we could really sell the concept and vision to a new group of investors to help us raise the vital capital to build an app.David:We believe the reason we achieved our investment target in record time on Crowdcube was because we got our personalities and passion across on our video, but more importantly had a good business plan about how we were going to take 7billionideas forward.David:The capital is being used to further development the website, build an iPhone and Android application, initial marketing, legal fees (trademarking further) administration and Crowdcube commission payment.7billionideas will require a third round of investment and we hope that building our platform for smart devices will give us the momentum we need and encouragement to potential investors that 7billionideas really does have a place to fill in social media on a much wider spectrum.
