The crucial prerequisite for all members to reliably achieve their workout goals is the seamless connection of hardware and software, in other words: the digitisation of the fitness space. For operators of fitness and health facilities, the digitisation of their offering is a huge opportunity to position themselves as innovative fitness providers for fun, effective and safe workouts, especially in competition with at-home-workout providers.

Accordingly, we are using these additional funds from the financing round to expand our product portfolio and further increase our competitive edge.”
