The creators of cycling safety app Flare (formerly Busby) are launching a crowdfunding campaign on Seedrs to help fund the growth and development of the business.
Since its launch in November 2019, Flare notes that it has been on a mission to provide life-saving technology to everyone around the world. The personal safety app secured a seven-figure investment last year through the LCR Angel Network and is conducting another round of investment to help bolster resources.
Co-Founder and Chief Operations Officer, James Duffy said “We want to make Flare as widely used as possible by integrating it into partner apps across the world. We want people to think or know of Flare as ‘the technology for protection’.”
Most recently, Flare introduced its Live Share feature which enables users to share their live location in real-time.
“Live Share represents a significant expansion of our already award-winning safety platform,” said Co-Founder and Chief Technical Officer, Kirk Ryan.
Winners of the National Highways Blue Star Award, Flare, is giving away a lifetime premium subscription to backers who invest £100 or more. Priority access to the crowdfunding campaign, and advance notice of when it goes live to the public, is available to those who sign up at seedrs.com/k-safe/coming-soon.
