British Payments Entrepreneur Finds Success in Metro Atlanta

The City of Atlanta continues to grow as a technology hub in the United States.

Midtown Atlanta is at the epicenter of that growth and as an innovation district for the Southeast has garnered attention from firms large and small from all around the globe.

One such example of this new worldwide interest in the Peach State is TruRating, a mass-market rating system offered to retailers and restaurants as an alternative to traditional rating sites like Yelp! and TripAdvisor.

Founder and CEO Georgina Nelson recognized Atlanta's commitment to IT innovation and with support from the Georgia Center of Innovation for IT and the Georgia Department of Economic Development she decided to plant the flag of her American outpost in Georgia in 2015 (TruRating is already live in both the UK and Australia and has offices in Canada).

Recently, TruRating has reached another milestone – raising $12 million in private investment in advance of the company's US launch in the Fall.
