MEMRY – The Swedes who challenge Facebook!

The founders of MEMRY – Peter Jundin and Pelle Kjellqvist was on the music festival Way Out West in Gothenburg, Sweden, when they first came up with MEMRY. Peter and Pelle was sitting on the train back to Stockholm, going through all the good photos and videos they been taking over the weekend. However, they didn’t want to spam their Instagram feed neither did they want to share their moments to Facebook, which have become a hysteria of links and advertising, as well as people they hardly know. It was cool to have thousands of friends a couple of years ago, but not any longer.

Then and there, late summer 2013, the idea of MEMRY was born. A social platform where users easily can create beautiful and epic albums, combining both photos and videos in the same album, that either can be shared with friends and family or just kept private, and at the same time being saved automatically to the cloud.

Today MEMRY has a development team of 10 people, live on AppStore, launching Android in October, to take on the world.  

The CEO of MEMRY, Peter Jundin, explains further that there is approximately 180% higher interaction rate on the album format than single photos and status updates. People love albums, telling the full story of their travels, weddings, birthdays etc. Also adding value to smaller events, like dinners, nights out with friends or spending time with your children.

Through MEMRY, we also solve people’s problems with the storage of their photos and videos, by being sorted into albums. All MEMRY albums created, are automatically stored in the MEMRY Cloud, so our users always have their important and most precious moments safely stored, even if you would delete the photos and videos on your phone because of lack of space, or by mistake.

According to a new survey from august 2015, made by the Swedish research institute Novus in Stockholm, more than 50% of all survey attendees (3.038 people), had the problem of running out of space on their smartphones, which means not being able to take any more photos or videos. The majority of these people (73%) deleted their old photos and videos, in order to take new photos and videos.

The future of MEMRY includes a web based photobook function, printing physical photobooks out of your MEMRY albums, launching in Q4 2015, together with one of the world leading companies within supply chain, print and packaging and e-commerce – Elanders Group. 

Within 90 seconds, you will be able to create a photobook of selected MEMRY albums, sent to your location, all around the world.
