Ello Uni

Hey Guys, @alexarnold here, Co-Founder, CEO Product Development and Marketing Director of Ello Uni: www.ellouni.com Ello Uni is a private higher education social platform (web and mobile) which helps students transition into the independent University life and optimise their University experience by providing a set of tailored services all in one place. Think oriented platform like LinkedIn, but for the University community. There are 5 key components to Ello Uni: 1. Social provider 2. Information provider 3. Deals 4. Accommodation 5. Recruitment With the rise of niche social platforms and the most recent trend of privacy (Snapchat), our focus is to reduce the gap, time and difficulty of the students' social, financial and academic activities, whilst enabling Universities and relevant advertisers to reach their audience efficiently. Our vision is to become the leading UK student brand by catering to students throughout their entire University lifecycle as opposed to addressing one single component. Our activity to date: - Secured seed funding - Launched BETA site (November 2016) - Organic weekly growth of 100 users with £0 spent on advertisement - Built a social media student community of 45K members - In conversation with one of the UK largest Universities - App in development (expected early 2017) Let me know if you have any questions!
