StaySafe 1

On Friday, Crowdcube #FundedClub member, StaySafe, announced that it was named a finalist for the Surrey Digital Awards in the “Best App” category for the second year running. The Surrey Digital Awards is considered the “first and only” digital awards scheme in Surrey. It celebrates and inspires online businesses across the UK county.

StaySafe Business is described as an app and cloud-based monitoring service that turns your smartphone into a safety device. Launched in 2014, it now has over 80 business clients including Countrywide, Ericsson and Huawei (>1500 potential users per business). The company shared:

StaySafe 22“StaySafe aims to solve the problem employers have in monitoring Lone Worker staff who are in a potentially vulnerable situation should they suffer an accident or attack. Lone Workers by definition do not have the usual safety net of a colleague to arrange help.”

StaySafe launched an equity crowdfunding campaign on Crowdcube last summer and secured £532,800 from 195 investors.

Funds from the campaign are being used for the following:

  • Team (including increase in direct and indirect sales, and support) – 75%
  • Increased Marketing – 15% and Product Development – 10%
