A startup founder in Leicester says he’s “blown away” by the number of downloads his app has had after a soft launch.

Harsh Patel released his app ApnaKey at university freshers fairs at the University of Leicester and De Montfort University.

The platform enables users to discover, organise and book local activities within the app.

Harsh said:

“We connected with over 3,000 students and are blown away by the amazing feedback and the number of downloads we’ve already received.

“This is just the beginning, and there’s so much more to come!”

Last year the startup won funding through Innovate UK’s Growth Fund Award.
