British Startup, 23snaps, Brings Private Social Networking for Families to Brazil

09 APRIL 2014, LONDON, UK
Summary
On April 15, 2014, 23snaps will launch a Brazilian-Portuguese language version at an event in Sao Paulo, Brazil, for the popular private social network and photo journal for families.

23snaps, the British start up that has been called the “Facebook for families” by TechCrunch and the “Instagram for parents” by CNET, is bringing their private social networking service for families to Brazil. On April 15, 2014, 23snaps will host a launch event in Sao Paulo, Brazil, for the Portuguese language version of their popular free iPhone, iPad, Android and web apps.

23snaps’ Brazilian launch is supported by UKTI and the British Consulate in Brazil, after 23snaps was selected to participate in The Great Tech Expedition, a UKTI trade mission to Brazil supported by the Mayor of London’s Export Program in September 2013. Says Keith Moses, director of the Expedition, “23snaps really stands out from the tech crowd and we were impressed with the high quality of the brand, potential to operate on a global scale and penetrate a new market such as Brazil.”

Over 500,000 registered users from 179 countries use 23snaps to privately and securely save photos, videos and stories of their children, and share them with loved ones around the world but Brazil marks the first non-English variation for the British company’s service.

Says Chief Marketing Officer, Meaghan Fitzgerald, "we are thrilled to make 23snaps available in Portuguese for Brazilian users. Brazil is a perfect market for 23snaps, with a large number of smartphone users, and a highly social and family-oriented culture.”
