Hey dude, congrats on the new position.
My concerns are from the perspective of the Series B investors.
We were the OG Crowdcube fanboys that scraped up whatever they could to invest in an idea and a bloke we believed in. We came from all over the android universe. Some of us, like me, were ride or die OnePlus. Until the day Carl jumped ship and we all went with him.
We were promised the opportunity to join in another funding round (as would be the norm for Series B investors) but after two additional rounds the fear is we will be passed over and forgotten.
The culture of ‘Community’ is something that has defined Carl and his approach to the business. It’s what draws us to his products. Why else would so many of us invest everything we had in a dude and his ideas, and no products?
I’ve reached out on a couple previous posts to the former CBO, so now I’m back to plead with you to advocate on our behalf.
I know there are many of us that have been patiently stuffing their piggy banks in preparation for the next opportunity.
Cheers mate!
