Jason Hadjioannou is an English/Greek media and technology entrepreneur from Chingford, London known as the creator of the social networking service "La-La".
La-La
Jason created "La-La" originally as a way to message his girlfriend in a more interesting way. In an interview with Softonic, Jason is quoted: "I was about to send my girlfriend a text message one morning and just thought it'd be cool if I sent her a short audible song snippet instead of writing it".[1]
Jason explains how he developed an early version of the messaging app in the summer of July 2014 and actioned the first La-La message to be sent via the service shortly after - which was a stream of the 17-second chorus of ‘Hello’ by Lionel Richie.
The music messaging app was released to the public on the 9th July, for iOS devices, and it gained fast early traction due to a widely positive reception.[2][3]
