Bending Spoons Lists on Nasdaq, Reaffirming Europe’s Digital-Scale Playbook

I’d like to share a development from the tech and M&A world: Bending Spoons has listed on Nasdaq and quickly captured market attention.

The Milan-based company has grown to a valuation above $25 billion and now oversees brands such as AOL, Vimeo, Meetup, Eventbrite and WeTransfer.

Its approach echoes private equity: acquire strong products, reshape them under one platform, improve monetization and reduce costs.

Today, the company serves more than 500 million monthly active users and over 9 million paying customers.

Why it matters: Bending Spoons shows how AI, a centralized operating system and product discipline can reshape major digital assets.

Do you see this as an effective growth strategy or an overly aggressive one?
