Videojug is an owner of various online consumer TV channels. These include Scoff (food); Pose (beauty), Brideas (weddings), Deco Bliss (home decor) and Quipstar (comedy). The group owns a parallel subsidiary providing corporate and brand video services. Clients include Marks & Spencer; the NHS and numerous financial institutions in the UK and internationally.
It launched as a beta online in 2006. The website provides both professionally made videos produced internally,[2] as well as some editorially selected quality videos produced by amateurs.[3]
The company originally produced videos in Spain and London and in 2006 opened studios in Santa Monica (Los Angeles) in the USA. As of January 2012, the company was based near Kings Cross in London. Today it makes in excess of 1,500 films per month.
The website was founded by David Tabizel, Dan Thompson, who had previously been CEO of 365 Corporation and Renegade Software as well as Hans Stocker Durlacher Corporation and Rupert Ashe (CEO Focus Communications).
Since being founded, the business has raised more than $30m in equity financing.[4]
In 2015 it underwent a restructuring, culminating in its acquisition of the film and online assets of Bladonmore in September. Richard Rivlin, founder of Bladonmore became Chairman of VideoJug. Nina-Harrison Bell was subsequently appointed as CEO of VideoJug Networks. Other board members include Nicholas McAlpine.
