TechHub Resident Company Betapond Raises €1.15 Million

By Miguel Garcia




If there’s something we really like to shout about it’s the success of TechHub Members.

This week our lovely resident company Betapond received over a million euros in funding.  Betapond joined us a few months ago but they’ve been operating since 2009 from offices in Waterford, Dublin, and California.

Betapond has some bragging rights of its own. They’re Ireland’s only Facebook Preferred Developer and have been able to expand into multiple markets with a small but strong team. 

Abed Hakim is Senior Account Manager and currently based at TechHub London and their CEO is Declan Kennedy. Abed showcased their product a few months ago at TechHub and showed how they create innovative Facebook apps and retail marketing products to help different commercial sectors incentivise consumers while generating social recommendations.

We’re excited about their recent accomplishments and are confident that they have a long way to go. Congrats guys and bon voyage on the journeys to come.
