TrekkSoft Group acquires stake in Berlin-based company Giant Monkey

Interlaken, February 8, 2023 - The Swiss group of companies TrekkSoft AG (TrekkSoft Group) is taking a stake in the Berlin-based company Giant Monkey GmbH (Giant Monkey). For the TrekkSoft Group, the strategic investment in Giant Monkey is the next logical step to reach museums throughout Europe in the future.

For several years, Giant Monkey has been successfully realizing projects in the museum world and equipping museums with integrated systems. Now, in particular, the reach into the DACH and entire EU region is to be expanded by making both modern payment and omnichannel solutions accessible to museums and cultural institutions.

TrekkSoft is the fourth shareholder, alongside the former shareholder Combase AG from Dresden and the founding shareholders Adrian Fuhrmann and Lion Vollnhals. The management remains with the previous managing directors.

The managing director and co-founder of Giant Monkey, Adrian Fuhrmann, says: "We are proud to have brought another strong partner on board with TrekkSoft. The participation underlines the success of our strategy so far, which we will continue in the future and offer the market the most innovative solutions for international visitor management."

"We look forward to working with the team at Giant Monkey. We are a group of software providers for diverse tourism service providers such as theme parks, ski schools and experience providers, and we are happy to have added Giant Monkey, the market leader in the museum sector. Within the group we share "best practices" and learn from each other, partly we realize "cross-selling" opportunities, but apart from that we are very decentralized organized and nothing will change for Giant Monkey's customers." says Philippe Willi, co-founder and Group CEO of TrekkSoft Group.
