The Retry project to train 3D artists using game mechanics closed a round of 9.1 million rubles, of which 10% was invested by the Brainbox.VC team. This was reported to RB.RU by the press service of the crowdinvesting platform.
Funding for the round was provided by 388 private investors, the lead investor being crowdfunding platform Brainbox.VC. Participants in the round received a 10% stake in exchange for investment.
Retry (JSC “Let’s do it again”) is an educational platform through which users master computer graphics in the format of a role-playing game.
The company’s CEO Igor Dyatlov said that Retry managed to build a strong team of specialists with many years of experience and knowledge in 3D, game development and education.
“We make a complex and effective product in the field of training: we offer conscious and thoughtful training with an emphasis on practical skills,” Dyatlov added.
The project will use the funds raised during the round to perfect the product. In addition, the financing received will allow us to prepare a platform to enter the b2b and marketing segments.
As part of the agreement with Brainbox.VC, the startup will report to investors monthly on the use of the funds raised. Next year, the project team has planned the integration of a set of new services and another round of investment.
According to Brainbox.VC CEO Albert Aliyev, the company values the desire and courage to “go off the beaten path with proven mechanics.”
“This strongly coincides with the idea of Brainbox.VC, because our product is investing in IT startups at an early stage. This is both a support for progress and a potentially profitable investment. Who said that altruism cannot generate benefits?” Aliyev explained Brainbox.VC’s interest in the project.
