The idea behind Slidesome was conceived at a friend's birthday
party in 2016. We were looking for a web solution that could fetch
and display posts from social media, as well as photos and videos
stored in the cloud. We found no solution that could aggregate
content from both social media and cloud storages such as Dropbox
and Google Photos and the ones already on the market, which could
only fetch content from social media, were either too expensive or
not working as expected. We therefore decided that this gap in the
market needed to be filled and Slidesome was born.
Slidesome received a two year project grant in 2019 from the Technology Development Fund (Tækniþróunarsjóður). The role of the fund is to support research and development activities, which aim towards innovation in Icelandic industry. It is a competitive fund which issues its calls for proposals twice a year.
The grant is a great acknowledgement and will enable us to focus on the development of our new app, themes, analytics and many more exciting features.
As always our main objective is developing an even better and more versatile Slidesome for our customers around the world.
Slidesome ehf. (410618-0790) is based in Reykjavik, Iceland.
