ocial.Limited, a new internet start-up, has chosen Bath as its base of operations for an exciting new project. The company, founded by entrepreneur Alex Attinger, is set to take on the world of Jeeps, via a unique and revolutionary website www.jpextreme.com, that is set to go live in March. The brand has already gained over one million followers across Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, giving it a head start that other websites could only dream of. Advisor to the company, Solly Solomou the CEO and Founder of TheLADbible Group commented that “The growth of JP has been impressive, by focusing on a specific niche Alex and his team have been able to gain traction quickly.” The new start-up launched officially in January 2017 and now employs six people from its offices in Bath. Harriet, who is Alex's wife and also behind the launch of the company, worked closely with Alex to develop the large social media following the business has amassed in such a short space of time.

The fan-base has been increasing rapidly despite the fact the website itself won’t be launched for another few weeks. There can be no doubt JP Extreme is going to be hugely popular. This exciting growth comes as no surprise to Alex, as he has a rich history with similar

His last start up, Digitalbox (also Bath-based), was a huge success. It featured in the Sunday Times Tech Track 100, in both 2015 and 2016. “Bath is the perfect place for a business such as this to flourish” explains Alex. “We have this wonderful city that is home to a wealth of talent in the digital marketing sector. And given the success I had with Digitalbox, it just made sense to stay here.” As the start-up moves forward, its momentum continues to grow at an impressive rate.

Moving forward, Alex and his team are looking to expand, opening up a number
