A Cambridge startup that creates pop-up musical cards and gifts has appointed a new chief financial officer.
Lovepop named Lisa Scopa to oversee the company's finance, people, and legal functions.
Scopa brings 25 years of industry experience to LovePop.
“As we invest our sizable balance sheet into new opportunities to expand our product line, technologies, channels, and geographies, Lisa will be a forward-thinking business partner leading Lovepop's continued growth and value creation,” Co-founder John Wise said in a release.
Lovepop gained momentum after appearing on ABC’s Shark Tank in 2015.
The company accepted a $300,000 offer from investor Kevin O'Leary for a 15 percent stake in the company.
In 2020, Lovepop made a pivot from creating greeting cards to manufacturing personal protective equipment for health-care workers during the pandemic.
Scopa is thrilled to join Lovepop as the company grows its reach and capabilities.
“I'm excited to be working with such a talented and highly-motivated team committed to reinventing the gifting and greeting-card industry. I look forward to driving meaningful growth as we march towards our mission of creating one billion magical moments for Lovepop customers,” Scopa said in a release.
