French company LumApps acquires Swiss competitor

With the acquisition of Beekeeper, LumApps has taken a decisive step forward, establishing itself as the first player capable of unifying the employee experience for all employees, whether in the office or in the field. Previously focused on office workers via its intelligent platform, the Lyon-based company is now extending its reach to all so-called "frontline" workers (in industry, logistics, mass retail or the hospitality sector - a market estimated to be worth over $10 billion by 2033). Thanks to the integration of Beekeeper's mobile application, all workers now have their entire workflow in their pocket, wherever they are.

This is a strategic advance in a rapidly consolidating market, where companies are looking to centralize HR tools, internal communication and automation in a single point. With over 6 million users, LumApps already enjoys a solid footprint in Europe, the United States and Japan. "LumApps has redefined employee engagement through innovation and artificial intelligence. The deal representsa bold move that will transform our industry, putting the success of office and frontline employees at the center of everything we do," enthuses Beekeeper co-founder Christian Grossmann.
