Amplify Adds Two New Companies To Portfolio

Venice, California-based Amplify LA, the startup investor which got its start as one of LA's first startup accelerators, said this week that it has added two new companies--Kulagy and Tapcart--as part of its portfolio of companies. Financial details of any investment in the two startups were not announced. Kulagy helps connect physical therapists with patients, and bills itself as the "world's first mobile physical therapy clinic". Tapcart develops a cloud-based software platform which allows e-commerce brands to launch their own, stylish mobile shopping apps. Kulagy's CEO is Jerry Parks; Tapcart's founders are Eric Netsch and Sina Mobasser. Amplify--which now focuses on pre-seed investments, generally as the first check into a company--has quietly become one of the more active investors in making investments in very early local startups.
