  • Popsa — Popsa sits at the intersection of AI, photos and B2C. According to Deloitte, it is one of the UK’s fastest-growing tech startups, and in both 2022 and 2023 the Financial Times ranked Popsa in the Top 20 fastest-growing software companies in the whole of Europe. Popsa is developing generative AI technology and AI agents that generate personalisedproducts for consumers based on the data contained in their own photos, therefore removing countless anxieties and manual tasks usually associated with personalisation, and empowering everyday people with professional storytelling techniques for the first time.Its award-winning app has made printing memories so easy and accessible that anyone can do it. As a result, the company receives 18,000 orders every week, increasing to 80,000 during Q4.Popsa's native iOS and Android apps are available in 12 languages – attracting more than 8 million users to date – and they ship to 50 countries around the world. Only 15% of Popsa’s revenue comes from the UK (France is their top market whilst the US is the fastest growing).People come to Popsa to create photobooks and other products, but what Popsa really does is help them process their lives and relationships through reflection on their photos. The company's longer term ambition is to become a global destination; a space to explore all of life’s moments and the emotions that come with them – not just the highlights. So holidays, but also lazy days and sad days too. Popsa believes the more you reflect, the better you understand yourself and your connections with others.
