Temporary tattoo startup Inkbox gets $10 mln in funding: Reuters
A Toronto-based startup has secured US$10 million ($13 million) in funding from venture capitalists to expand its operations in the temporary tattoo business, the company’s chief executive officer said this week. The startup, Inkbox, aims to give customers “the look and feel of a permanent tattoo without the permanence,” CEO and Co-Founder Tyler Handley told Reuters. The company, which was founded in 2015 and operates in Canada and Japan, ships approximately 60,000 tattoos per month to over 150 countries, with 75 percent of its sales going to the United States. The company received its latest equity investment from a group led by U.S. venture capital firm Maveron.
