Bright future for Brighton’s mpb.com

Brighton-based photographic sale and exchange innovators mpb.com have been accepted as members of venture development hothouse Tech City’s Future Fifty – all fast-growing enterprises benefiting from the ‘disruption’ of old ways of doing business.

Future Fifty is an exclusive group of ventures nurtured for market and geographical growth. In the past five years Future Fifty companies have raised $5.5BN in investment, employed 27,000 people, and have seen 28 exits (5 IPOs, 23 mergers & acquisitions).

Recognition of the phenomenal success of Matt Barker’s groundbreaking startup, which now buys and sells fast-moving equipment from professional and amateur photographers on both sides of the Atlantic, means ‘Dragon’ style mentoring and potential financial backing to expand and enhance the trusted exchange. MPB offers purchase quotes on-line helping photographers realise the value of outgoing gear rapidly and without risk, which in turn lets sellers acquire new kit at the best price – no more missing time-limited promotions because you have unsold surplus equipment instead of cash.

You can find ever-growing ranges of key brands in certified used condition, with MPB warranty backing, alongside the latest new products at mpb.com – and find out rapidly what your unwanted assets could bring in to help you acquire it.
