Videojug (www.videojug.com) is a media owner and digital publisher of video content based in London. The group owns a parallel subsidiary, Videojug Networks (www.videojugnetworks.com), providing corporate and brand video services. Clients include Marks & Spencer; the NHS and numerous financial institutions in the UK and internationally.
Videojug launched as a beta online in 2006, publishing many thousands of how-to videos across a multitude of subjects. In late 2016 the site relaunched as "The Home of How To", showcasing the very best from its catalogue of content as well as trending videos from around the web.
The company originally produced videos in Spain and London and in 2006 opened studios in Santa Monica (Los Angeles) in the USA. The website was founded by David Tabizel, Dan Thompson, who had previously been CEO of 365 Corporation and Renegade Software as well as Hans Stocker Durlacher Corporation and Rupert Ashe (CEO Focus Communications).
Since being founded, the business has raised more than $30m in equity financing.[2]
In 2015 it underwent a restructuring, culminating in its acquisition of the film and online assets of Bladonmore in September. Richard Rivlin, founder of Bladonmore became Chairman of Videojug. Nina-Harrison Bell was subsequently appointed as CEO of Videojug Networks. Other board members include Nicholas McAlpine.
