Meet the sound pollution brand cutting above the noise for environments that are easier on the ears
Sound pollution brand cuts above the noise with launch of crowdfunding campaign
Mumbli’s crowdfunding campaign is now open for pre-registration for potential investors to contribute and join the company’s mission to tackle noise pollution.
Sound pollution is a serious problem where almost nine in ten 20-40 year olds leave venues due to excessive recreational noise, according to Mumbli, and the brand is on a mission to do something about it.
Mumbli – specialists in noise monitoring systems for public spaces such as bars and restaurants – is crowdfunding part of its Seed round via Seedrs to invite people on its journey who want to join the mission of solving the issue of excessive noise in public spaces. Marion Marincat, founder of Mumbli, is looking to grow the tribe of investors in the brand and make hearing wellness a mainstream topic
Speaking on the campaign, Marion said: “With our crowdfunding activity, we plan on expanding Mumbli further from its foundations in East London with a roll out across the capital, as well as Paris and New York. Mumbli will not only benefit people with sensitivity to sound or noise, but will also benefit businesses which are losing a lot of money due to people being unable to spend time in a space with excessive noise.”.”
According to research from Mumbli, some venues are losing £20,000 in revenue every month due to unwanted noise. The patent pending noise monitoring system developed by Mumbli has been designed to monitor and provide data on venue sound levels to promote audio accessibility for everyone.
Marion adds: “There are 20 million people in the UK and two billion around the world who are sensitive to sound, including hard of hearing, those in the neurodiversity groups and with decreased sound tolerance. Mumbli’s goal is to make smart buildings and public spaces such as bars and restaurants accessible to all by working with property developers and businesses themselves to reduce their noise pollution.”
Noise monitoring is carried out by Mumbli via the installation of beacons in specific areas which continuously monitor noise levels without ever recording conversations. The brand’s audio experts, data analysts and hospitality specialists then produce regular reports on noise in the space. Mumbli translates the characteristics of sound and acoustic monitoring into understandably actionable insights for businesses to implement, all defined in a Certified for Sound rating.
Data from the beacons can also reveal useful insights to a company such as speech quality, the quietest and loudest areas of the space, and patterns linked to revenue and occupancy.
Since its foundation in 2018, Mumbli has enjoyed great success so far with over 100 venues in the pipeline to tackle the issue of noise pollution. Additionally, Mumbli is responsible for creating the first hearing wellness district in The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London. Launched earlier this year on World Hearing Day, 3rd March, the space provides a sensory sanctuary in collaboration with London Legacy Development Corporation and Sofar Sounds to provide the capital with more spaces where people can escape from the city’s noise.
Brands who work with Mumbli to reduce their noise pollution can benefit from inclusion in Mumbli’s exclusive directory which currently aims to attract over 3.000 people in the best places to go which have more manageable noise levels for socialising.
