A Scottish designer and manufacturer of musical accessories is looking to repeat the success of its first product launch in 2021 with two new innovations, after agreeing a funding deal with Reward Finance Group.
Edinburgh-based Noisy Clan was established in 2019 by David Law, a product designer who has spent much of his career running businesses in Silicon Valley, including the most successful producer of cases for Apple devices.
His latest venture is aiming to develop a range of accessories for musicians of all ages and abilities to make it easier for them to practice and perform music.
The £250,000 working capital facility provided by Reward Finance Group should facilitate the development of Grandstand, a music stand specifically designed for home use, along with its new Decoder product, a learning tool to assist with music theory.
Grandstand launched on Kickstarter on 2 August and is already available for pre-order. Decoder will be available for sale direct and through online channels by October.
Noisy Clan is hoping to build on the success of the Wee Stand, the Red Dot Design Award-winning product that launched the business. The compact music stand and has sold thousands of units in 47 countries.
David Law, founder of Noisy Clan, said: “Being able to access funds as and when we need them at this stage of the new product development process is vital, particularly to build market awareness, and that’s why we are extremely pleased with the funding provided by Reward.
“Brian Machray and the team really did go above and beyond, keeping us in the loop at all stages and even facilitating an initial 20% advance while the finer details of the agreement were being finalised.”
Brian Machray, business development director at Reward Finance Group, added: “We are really pleased to be able to support Noisy Clan, a fantastic new business with a bright future whose fresh ideas are already gaining popularity in their market.”
