BlackCurve, the pricing optimisation company, has announced the closing of a £1m funding round, led by their Chairman, Martin Fincham, with participation from Nauta Capital, The Cambridge Angels Network and other prominent Angels, members of The ScaleUp Group and then bolstered by a matching contribution from the UK Government’s Future Fund.

Retailers spend too much time on tracking competitors’ price changes across all channels.

With “Tracker”, our new Google Shopping Competitor scraping technology, and brand new dashboard you can eliminate the complicated, time-consuming process of tracking your competitors’ products as well as price changes.

Price management and optimisation company, BlackCurve, has strengthened its leadership team with the appointment of software entrepreneur Martin Fincham as Chairman and Chee Wong, the former COO of Shazam, as Technical Advisor.

Since raising the seed round, BlackCurve has continued to bolster its team, expand its client base and make strong progress building out its product, including key integrations with BigCommerce, Magento and Shopify.

This week, I have been balancing the PR based tasks I have been set, as well as working on reaching out to more people regarding People of Pricing.

During Week 5, I have moved my attention slightly from People of Pricing, and am now concentrating on more PR focused tasks regarding BlackCurve.

My third week has flown by! I have been kept busy with the development of People of Pricing, and also with research on future blogs that could be posted. 

Week Two 

After my first week of settling in and getting comfortable with BlackCurve’s marketing strategies and tools, Week Two has seen me taking more control of the various social media sites, as well putting a plan together to launch a new project on BlackCurve’s website.

Here are a few words from our Emmanuel Aremu, Growth Director at BlackCurve:

"As BlackCurve continues to progress, it has looked to expand its team in order to contribute towards its mission of helping companies optimise their prices and grow profits. After such a successful internship last year, we have decided to continue this programme for a second time.

As BlackCurve continues to scale, we are committed to hiring exceptional people to come along with our mission - helping companies use pricing to grow their profits. Today we're welcoming Rob Horton as our new team member.

As BlackCurve continues to progress, it has looked to expand its team in order to contribute towards its mission of helping companies optimise their prices and grow profits. And so, Blackcurve has opened its office doors to its very first intern.

Blackcurve's Marketing Intern, Chandan Dhiman will be uploading a weekly log detailing the projects she completes over the course of two months.
