Flick TV, a new microdrama app founded by former executives from the social media platform ShareChat, has successfully bagged $2.3 million in a seed funding round. The app focuses on producing and distributing short-form, episodic fictional content, a format that is gaining popularity among young, mobile-first audiences. The seed funding will be used to develop the platform's technology, create a pipeline of original content, and build a user community.
