Glopho

Seed Round in 2012
Glopho is the digital community for sharing and selling your news photos. It is an online photo-sharing marketplace designed specifically to allow anyone to “make the news” and make money too by selling the photos they take. Glopho provides media owners with an organised source of new content in a world where the news is increasing captured by all of us on our phones. Millions of people with a camera in their pocket - budding amateur photographers or seasoned professionals - can share their own version of news. The riots, the Royal procession or a dog on a skateboard; any photo can be easily and immediately shared via the Glopho website and mobile apps and then onwards through Facebook, Twitter or other social channels. Glopho is completely free to use and takes ‘citizen photo-journalism’ to new levels. Glopho is not trying to be another social network. It allows everyone to easily share the pictures they take with the wider world whilst users can follow their favourite photographers to see all the news they share, every day. And most importantly the user retains copyright to any photo that they upload and if Glopho sells it for them then they get 50% of the proceeds. Sort of Getty meets Instagram. Glopho also allows brands, charities and indeed the wider business community to reach out directly and share their photo content with a visual engaged audience who, in turn, have the opportunity to share the content on and through to the wider web. Glopho apps are available in both iOS and Android versions to make it even easier for people to post their pictures and enjoy looking at Glopho while on the go and those using digital cameras rather than smartphones can upload their pictures via the website. Glopho is the brainchild of award-winning photojournalist and ex-Times picture editor Simon Walker, now founder and CEO of Glopho. The idea and the business he has created has been developed over the last two years. Thorough Beta testing has allowed iterative development and the creation of the current proposition and the next phase of development, both on the web and across the apps, is scheduled to be released over the coming months.

Scour Prevention

Angel Round in 2012
Scour around offshore wind turbines remains a big problem, it is caused by the water speeding up around an object, which then gouges out a hole which gets progressively deeper: once the scour hole is deep enough, it will cause the structure to become unstable thereby resulting in the turbine having to be shut down and generation income lost. SPS has a patented device that can completely resolve this issue, has been extensively tested in a flow tank but now requires final field trials.

Funding Round in 2013
Glopho is the digital community for sharing and selling your news photos. It is an online photo-sharing marketplace designed specifically to allow anyone to “make the news” and make money too by selling the photos they take. Glopho provides media owners with an organised source of new content in a world where the news is increasing captured by all of us on our phones. Millions of people with a camera in their pocket - budding amateur photographers or seasoned professionals - can share their own version of news. The riots, the Royal procession or a dog on a skateboard; any photo can be easily and immediately shared via the Glopho website and mobile apps and then onwards through Facebook, Twitter or other social channels. Glopho is completely free to use and takes ‘citizen photo-journalism’ to new levels. Glopho is not trying to be another social network. It allows everyone to easily share the pictures they take with the wider world whilst users can follow their favourite photographers to see all the news they share, every day. And most importantly the user retains copyright to any photo that they upload and if Glopho sells it for them then they get 50% of the proceeds. Sort of Getty meets Instagram. Glopho also allows brands, charities and indeed the wider business community to reach out directly and share their photo content with a visual engaged audience who, in turn, have the opportunity to share the content on and through to the wider web. Glopho apps are available in both iOS and Android versions to make it even easier for people to post their pictures and enjoy looking at Glopho while on the go and those using digital cameras rather than smartphones can upload their pictures via the website. Glopho is the brainchild of award-winning photojournalist and ex-Times picture editor Simon Walker, now founder and CEO of Glopho. The idea and the business he has created has been developed over the last two years. Thorough Beta testing has allowed iterative development and the creation of the current proposition and the next phase of development, both on the web and across the apps, is scheduled to be released over the coming months.
