Blyk - Company Profile

Blyk is a mobile messaging media platform founded in 2006 with the slogan "Connecting Youth with Brands through Engaging Mobile Messages." The company effectively connects young people with brands in collaboration with mobile operators. Known for exceptional response rates and ROI for advertisers, Blyk quickly established itself as a leader in advertising, messaging, and marketing after its launch in the UK in 2007. By pioneering interactive text and multimedia messaging, Blyk tapped into the everyday messaging habits of young people, allowing them to connect with brands just as they do with friends and family. As a private company, Blyk operates out of Helsinki, London, Amsterdam, and Delhi. The company's strategic partners include Orange and Vodafone. Notably, the last investment of €17.00M was made in a Venture Round on 13 September 2010, and the investor was Nexit Ventures. For more information, you can visit www.blyk.com.
