90min is a technology-enabled football news platform, which produces Internet content covering various football leagues. The content offered by the platform is user-generated following the principles of citizen journalism. The first London based company website was launched in 2011 as FTBpro.com by Israeli entrepreneurs Yuval Larom, Asaf Peled, and Gilad Beiman. 90min was founded in late 2011, as FTBpro, by Yuval Larom, Asaf Peled, Gilad Beiman. Prior to 90min, Peled worked for Cisco Systems for four years, while Beiman was among the founders of the Israeli Web portal Tapuz. The initial idea for the website came as the founders, all of them football fans, noticed that there was little investment in football-related start-ups. Shortly after its establishment the company raised $300,000 by angel investors including Shahar Erez and Boaz Dinte. In a second funding round in 2012 the company managed to raise $5.8 million from Battery Ventures and Gemini Israel Ventures, stating that the funding would be used for the geographic expansion of the company.
