Riyadh – Sharikat Mubasher: Saudi social media platform Bubbl announced raising $350,000 in pre-seed led by angel investor, Abdullah Al Dosari.

launched last March by Aya Alhamoud, Bubbl managed to attract 60,000 active users on a daily basis, and become Saudi Arabia’s top application on the Apple app store, according to the company’s announcement.

The platform aims to reach 1 million active users daily, using the fresh capital to expand in the Kingdom and beyond.

Angel investor, Abdullah Al Dosari sees that Bubbl introduces a local social media platform that can rival global ones in a market that used to be exclusively limited to a group of countries.

Bubbl is a widget that shows live text feeds from users’ best friends, right to their Home Screen. Users can share thoughts, and insights with their inner circle of friends and family members, up to 20 people, and be able to see each other's thoughts & statuses every time they unlock their phone.
