Bending Spoons builds tech empire through strategic acquisitions
Milan-based Bending Spoons has established itself as a major European technology player through a strategy of acquiring and restructuring well-known digital brands. Founded in 2013, the company has built a diverse portfolio that includes services such as Evernote, WeTransfer, Vimeo, Eventbrite, Splice, and the AI-powered photography app Remini.
Rather than developing new products from the ground up, Bending Spoons focuses on purchasing established businesses with existing customer bases. The company then applies its internal engineering, data analysis, and payment systems to rewrite software, redesign user experiences, and optimize pricing and marketing.
Financial data indicates rapid growth, with annual revenue rising from $387 million in 2023 to an estimated $1.31 billion in 2025. In July, the company expanded its global presence by listing on the Nasdaq stock exchange in New York.
