“The fact our first set of investors include top players such as Alex and Raheem, who know better than anyone the importance of our technology, is a ringing endorsement of our plans to cement our position in the B2B (business-to-business) market whilst growing the huge B2C (business-to-consumer) opportunity.” Jarlath said.

“The company has been profitable year on year without taking any investment since inception in 2009. What is even more remarkable is for a technology company to achieve global market leader status whilst being bootstrapped,” he added.
