MEANING

GroupSpaces is a London-based online company that provides technology to help real-world clubs, societies, associations and other groups manage their membership and activities, and promote themselves online. Founded by Oxford University students David Langer and Andy Young, the company was launched in the United Kingdom in 2007 and has since expanded into the United States and over 30 other countries. As of November 2010, its software is used to host over 1 million memberships.

GroupSpaces empowers group leaders and committees to organise member records, send email newsletters, host forums and email discussions, organise events and sell tickets, collect membership fees and more. We’re all about using technology to make people’s lives easier.
