Description

The secret is out! This past year has seen Geofilter Studio quietly build one of the city’s biggest design/interactive departments and emerge as a great local success story.

Geofilter Studio creates customized geo-tagged filters ("Geofilters") for Snapchat. These Geofilters are made to measure graphic overlays that brands and customers use to enhance their experience on the platform. Geofilter Studio was the first company in the world to realize this market potential when they launched. Fast forward two years and orders are pouring in from Fortune 500 companies and users around the world. With all this business Geofilter Studio is scaling…fast. With an ever expanding roster of young talent and forward-thinking leadership at the helm, Geofilter Studio is managing their success today and poised for even bigger things tomorrow.

New Media Manitoba is happy to have Geofilter Studio founders Chris Schmidt and Martin Bshouty on hand to tell their story of building this unique company.

Join us for this fun and informative evening and get the inside scoop on:

  • What is a Geofilter and why do people want them?

  • Managing success, how to scale a company quickly.
  • Building a corporate culture that people want to be a part of.
  • Lessons learned the hard way.
  • Ambitions for the future.

There will also be a question and answer session following the presentation.
