LiveMusicStage Scores New Angel Round
Finland based startup LiveMusicStage, an online service for broadcasting and monetizing interactive live music events, has added two new partners in their second investment round. UK management consultant Evgenia Domnenkova, and Jaakko Salminen, a software specialist from Finland. The undisclosed investment will be used to speed product development and sales efforts in the UK where CMO Jyri Forsstrom is already based.
The early stage startup pitched at the HATCH competition at SXSW, and MUSIC Techpitch 4.5 plus the Digital Shoreditch Capital day in London. They gained a bit of traction using a Finnish 450-seat rock venue as a boradcast venue and via an independent reseller in Japan.
