When the
Globe and Mail reported in late May that the two 25-year-old founders of
NuLayer Inc. were at the "hub of the iPad app revolution," the company had recently launched its innovative photo application Crowdreel and had landed a job developing Score Media's iPad application.
Last week Score Media announced that they had bought a 20% stake in the innovative, Liberty Village-based company, with an agreement that NuLayer will develop "disruptive" technologies for the media giant and continue to develop its own products. "Crowdreel was just the beginning and we have several exciting products on our road map," said NuLayer co-counder Jeff Brenner, calling the partnership with Score Media "a new era for our team."
That team has grown to six employees since the company's recent launch by two McMaster graduates. The team is growing now,
seeking a rails developer.
On the acquisition, Score Media Executive VP and COO Benjie Levy said, "We've now created an environment where NuLayer and Score Media can work together to develop innovative digital offerings while giving NuLayer the resources they need to achieve explosive growth."
