Bending Spoons enters the world of outdoor
Italian technology company Bending Spoons today announced the completion of its acquisition of komoot, the renowned German route planning platform for outdoor enthusiasts around the world.
Markus Hallermann, CEO and co-founder of komoot, said: “For 17 years, we have been working to make outdoor adventures accessible to everyone. From a simple student bedroom to a leading platform in Europe with 45 million users, komoot is now the leader in its field. However, the next phase of growth requires new skills and a strong strategic vision. Bending Spoons, with its experience in innovation and development of digital platforms, is the ideal partner to lead us into the future.”
