Fast-growing RealSelf gobbles up Zapd, names Kelly Smith chief experience officer
September 11, 2013 at 8:26 am by John Cook
You could call this an “acquihire.” But, in this case, it’s really just about grabbing the talents of one person.
RealSelf is buying Pressplane, the parent company of Zapd, picking up the skills of experienced entrepreneur and designer Kelly Smith in the process. Zapd will be shut down at the end of the month, though some of the technology will be carried over to RealSelf, which is building what it dubs the world’s largest community of cosmetic surgery, dermatology and dentistry.[1]
