History
GeoOp was founded in Auckland, New Zealand in 2009 by Nicholas Bartlett, Benjamin Goudie-Park, Simon Fraser, and Brendan Cervin.[1] In 2010, the company opened an additional office in Melbourne, Australia.
In 2011, GEO was awarded the Consensus Software Award for being the most innovative software product in Australia and New Zealand.[2]
In early 2013, Leanne Graham, the former Country Manager of New Zealand-based accounting software company Xero, became GeoOp's new CEO.[3] By mid 2013, GeoOp successfully raised 10 million in private funding.[4] In the following October, GeoOp listed on the small-cap NZAX, becoming a public listed company.[5]
In September 2014, Graham stood down as CEO to become an 'executive strategic adviser' to the company in the USA. The news was followed by an 11% drop in the share price.[6] Anna Cicognani became acting CEO in February 2015.[7]
GeoOP completed a $2.4m NZD capital raise in August 2015, to pursue growth opportunities in Australia.[8]
In January 2015, GeoOp announced a distribution agreement with MyCloudCure for the United States and Canada.[9]
In Feb 2020 Tim Molloy was appointed CEO. Tim is an experienced technology CEO.
