startup funding and unicorns. Nameloop is not one yet but in recent news, Scotland’s FanDuel made a big raise and joined the club. The link with Nameloop? Beyond Scotland, Owen O’Donnell (investor and former chairman at FanDuel) is now taking stakes in Nameloop (raising via equity crowdfunding, on crowd cube: http://bit.ly/nameloop) and showing the same trust in this team to bring the company to the next level. Nameloop are developing a web and mobile (app) interface for contact management. The app allows individuals and professionals to aggregate all contacts in one, digital, place and share customised details (and persona) with every single contact. Thus not only being an ever up-to-date address book but also a digital business card. Beyond that users remain in control of their data and connections, a major point in the wake of LinkedIn’s recent moves.
