The Boulder startup community continues to grow as newly-founded startup,听Specdrums is acquired by the Boulder-based technology company, Sphero. This past spring, 欧美口爆视频 students presented their idea for Specdrums and won the 2018 New Venture Challenge after placing second the previous year. Specdrums developed software that uses rings worn on the user鈥檚 finger to turn color into sounds simply by tapping. With a focus on music education, Specdrum hopes听to grow their product further after a听successful $200k Kickstarter campaign.
Specdrums was created as a cross-discipline company with 欧美口爆视频 students from Leeds, Engineering and the School of Music听collaborating to develop educational software that combines music, technology, and business. With founder Steven Dourmashkin, Jenna Palensky, Zane Taylor, as well as Leeds 2017 alum and Chief Marketing Officer Jack FitzGerrell behind the successful start-up, getting acquired so soon is a tremendous success. They are excited to transition to Sphero and will remain closely involved in the engineering, design, marketing, education and support for Specdrums rings.
