We said no to Dragon's Den & more: GoPlugable May Investor update #6

Hope you're well! It’s been a bustling month for us at GoPlugable. We even had a surprise invite to (potentially pitch at) Dragons' Den, which we paused to focus on our business priorities.

Maebh Reynolds has been on the move, presenting at the World Future Energy Summit in Abu Dhabi and pitching at events in London and Manchester. Check out our partners page to see the new partnerships we've secured, key to our market strategy.

As we continue to expand our operations and product development, we are gradually closing our current funding round, though fundraising has taken longer than expected. We appreciate your support as we gear up for a busy summer!

Primary Updates:

• Thrilled to report 650+ downloads with minimal marketing spend.
• Onboarding our CTO & tech team this June, poised to turbocharge our tech capabilities.
