Dream Reality Interactive (DRI) is a software development company that builds interactive programmes and games across the full spectrum of immersive platforms and devices. DRI is in a soft launch of its mobile Augmented Reality (AR) karaoke game, Singheads, with the full launch expected in late June. DRI is partnering with Snapchat to leverage its 229 million daily active users towards this objective. The game offers players a new song to sing every day, and the unique business model opens the mobile karaoke market to ad-funded play. AR avatar heads powered by Bitmojoi (similar to Apple’s highly valued Memoji) significantly enhance the user experience. The company will use the investment to further develop its game. It will exit by being a catalyst in launching a successful number of games and eventually be acquired by a global platform such as Snapchat, Apple, Tik Tok, or by a global video games company such as Electronic Arts, Zynga, Activision, Tencent or NetEase.

GymBuddy is an online platform that enables consumers to find, book, and attend a gym location, services, or products offered and operated by fitness studios, gyms, trainers, venues, or other third parties. Users can easily, through filtered searches on the app, view descriptions, and contact information of specialists within the fitness industry such as personal trainers, nutritionists, and physiotherapists. The UK fitness industry alone is currently worth over £5 billion. Based on recent statistics, the average gym membership in the UK costs members £40 a month, which often ties them into lengthy contracts. The GymBuddy app will enter the Health & Fitness club sector as a multi-gym membership feature that gives users access to gyms and various fitness plans, without the need for bricks-and-mortar locations under its brand. The company is seeking an investment of £400,000 to expand its brand identity and bring more users to its ecosystem to generate profits.
