Goojet sponsor of Leweb Conference


HomeThis year again we will be attending Leweb conference. This conference is THE rendez-vous of web companies in Europe and this year, with the them “Real-Time Web”, we could not not be present ;)

Goojet has a long story with this conference as this is the third year in a row as a partner (last year we made a special version of Goojet for the conference) but also because two years ago it was during this conference that we opened our private beta and we announced our fund raising. It was also thanks to Leweb that we started getting awareness, by winning the startup competition of Leweb in 2007.

This year we will not only be a partner of the conference, by sponsoring the goodies bag (with nice goodies reminder of last year) but Marc (Marc Rougier, President of Goojet) will also be talking on a panel dedicated to Mobile Apps.

We will be several from the team to attend the conference, so feel free to ping us if you want to meet, and if you still hesitate before coming, have a look at this video presenting the program.

Techcrunch Europas Awards: Goojet, Second in « Best Mobile Startup » category


Techcrunch Europe, the European version of the American blog Techcrunch, specialized in high-tech and the web industry and therefore specialized in startup news has organized a competition between startups on an European scale: The Europas.

Goojet was nominated in the “Best Mobile Startup” category among more than thirty other companies but thanks to the vote of the community (and thus your votes because we spread the message on Goojet and on Twitter) we were shortlisted in the top 5 finalists.

During Thursday night’s ceremony in London, we finished second and were “highly commended”. The winner was Nimbuzz and we congratulate them and their application that gathers several IM and social networks in one. For us, this second position, while Goojet is still little-developed in Europe is a very good sign and an excellent recognition from the market and from our peers (19 experts were in the jury).

Techcrunch used the occasion to release an index: Techcrunch Europe Top 100 that lists the hundred, more or less recent, most active and visible European startups. The classification algorithm is not very clear (it is made by a company called Younoodle) but Goojet is present in this ranking so we will carefully watch our evolution ;)

Thank you all again for your support!

Goojet updated: now much faster!


As we announced it last week, we needed to update Goojet in order to support all the new members we have every day and therefore propose a good experience and  all our regular users.

So yesterday we did the update, and everything went well!

Not many visible changes for our users (the update mostly affected the backend), except that it’s much much faster. Goojet has dramatically increased in speed, whether on mobile or on the web portal and we are sure you will enjoy it.

As a “bonus” with this update, a new website, that we hope clearer and better for the comprehension of new visitors. Have a look :
