SUMMARY
Hailed as ‘The Netflix of UK Stand-Up’ by Engadget - NextUp is a comedy video platform co-founded by BBC Worldwide's former Director of Comedy. With an LTV of £45+ and CAC of just £15 in a growing £19bn market, NextUp is now ready for expansion - be part of it...
TRACTION
'App of the Day' // 'Apps We Love' -Apple
Audible // BBC3 // Soho Theatre -Contracts Won
BAFTA-Winning Team Member// 4.2* App Store Rated // 4.5 Trustpilot
Former MGM Worldwide President -Investor & Advisor
PROBLEM
91% of award-worthy stand-up shows can’t be watched online. Of the 1,200+ shows created each year, a lot of great content is lost. That’s a problem for an estimated 5.8m UK comedy fans who have no source to catch-up or discover stand-up through and for 100s of comedians whose work disappears after its performance.
SOLUTION
To film great comedy shows that would otherwise be lost and monetise them online for fans to enjoy, sharing revenue with comedians whilst promoting their work. It's a win-win.
