goSupermodel: is this dot bomb v2.0?
GP Bullhound, the research-centric technology investment bank, has completed a €3 million financing round for watAgame, the Danish company behind goSupermodel, a social networking game for teenage girls centred around fashion. The funding will be used to launch goSupermodel in new markets and further develop the game. The investment was led by Accel Partners together with Vaekstfonden and Seed Capital.

watAgame’s CEO, Henrik Riis, commented, “The goSupermodel community recently reached 1 million users and is now racing towards 2 million. With such rapid growth we decided to seek funding so that we can hire new people, launch in other markets and expand the features available in the product. We chose Accel because they are a leading international venture capitalist firm with extensive knowledge of our space and an extremely valuable network internationally, crucially in the US.”
