EngageSciences Secures $750,000 Angel Round For ?Social Nurturing? Service

EngageSciences, exhibiting in the Startup Alley at TechCrunch Disrupt this week, has revealed it's closed an angel investment of $750,000 from private European investors. Terms were not disclosed but we understand the round came from some UK and European angels.

The startup has been developing its application since December, focusing the concept of "social nurturing" - a fancy way of saying its about getting more fans for brand brands and companies. The startup is slightly different form the the current crop of U.S. social media marketing vendors, in that too many of these companies just focus on just getting more ?Likes? for brands or increasing their fan count or simply running a one-off contest. This is rather tactical and avoids the issue of user retention in the longer term.
