Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?
Hello, my name is Dominic and I am the co-founder of HoopMaps.
HoopMaps is a mobile app that allows users to find pickup games in their area. We offer our app for IOS and android play stores. HoopMaps is a platform where users can discover, join and create games.
Our primary focus at this stage is to grow our user base, then we will focus in on revenue, but in the meantime, we’re all about educating users on pickup basketball. With that being said we are a pre-revenue company.
Since we launched, we have amassed over 90,000 users across 11 countries outside the United States an have appeared on international media outlets such as SportsCenter and Shark Tank and partnered with The Big 3 professional basketball league.
