Olapic Raises $1 Million to put your photos where they belong

When we started our trip a few months ago, our vision was to allow publishers and brands a way to collect photos from their fans for use on their own websites. Since then,  clients like  Condé Nast, Nikon Pepsi, NY Daily News, The Baltimore Sun and sports teams like the Mavs, Grizzles, Giants, Ravens, FC Barcelona are now communicating with customers and fans in the way that everyone does it these days: with photos.

Today, we’re happy to announce that we have raised $1M from  Great Oaks Venture Capital, Brad Harrison Ventures, Columbia University’s Lang Fund, and several other angel investors to continue growing.

The money will go to continue developing our existing platform and our new tool for e-commerce, that has launched this week with Free People as launch partner . On their page, items are tagged with a link that says “share your style,” which directs shoppers to post their hashtagged photos on Instagram or Twitter for inclusion on the website.

Thanks all for your continuous support and let’s keep doing great thinks together!
