3 Million Euro investment in ReviewPro

The year's impressive amount of investment in Spanish start-ups has continued into July, and we've now recently heard of a €3 million funding round with ReviewPro that will enable them to continue their international expansion.

The investment is headed by ACTIVE Venture Partners, a fund that supports entrepreneurs working for technology-based companies.

ReviewPro provides analytical tools that allow its clients (mainly in the hotel sector) to manage its online reputation and social media presence. Its clients include such groups like Melia Hotels, Louvre Hotels Group and Apex Hotels. It enables hotels to better understand and improve guest satisfaction and profit from the social web.

The start-up was founded by the Californian RJ Friedlander in Barcelona in 2008, and has since grown to manage 6,000 clients in more than 80 countries, and the firm employs over 70 people with offices in the US and Latin America as well as in the Catalan city.
