What happens when a Milan-based company starts buying some of the world’s most famous, but fading tech brands, and actually brings them back to life?

In this episode, we dive deep into the story of Bending Spoons, the Italian firm behind the revival of apps like Evernote, Meetup, WeTransfer, and even AOL. You’ll learn how they’ve built a multi-billion-dollar empire by combining sharp financial discipline with bold engineering and product reinvention.

We’ll explore:

• The unique “acquire and revitalise” business model powering their success
• How cost efficiency and shared tech platforms help turn losses into profits
• The controversial (and effective) playbook behind their major turnarounds
• Their growing ambitions — from AI-driven innovation to a potential IPO

Whether you’re a tech founder, investor, or just curious about how European start-ups are redefining global tech, this episode offers a front-row seat to one of the most fascinating success stories in modern business.
