Spotlio AS (the “Company”, Euronext Growth Oslo), previously named Canopy Holdings AS, confirms the operational integration of its wholly owned European and US businesses represented by the two main brands of Spotlio and Catalate, respectively. The integrated operations, which will be marketed to customers under the consolidated banner of Spotlio, will redefine destination digital technology and herald a new era of cutting-edge solutions for the ski resort, parks, and attractions sector. This transformative collaboration solidifies our commitment to excellence in the industry and enhances millions of guest experiences.
The combined operations provide for integration of capabilities across a diverse portfolio, enabling Spotlio to connect resorts and attractions with consumers in the most efficient way possible. Seamlessly incorporating demand-based Dynamic Pricing and e-commerce solutions across various platforms, ranging from web to mobile apps, removes the obstacles hindering the provision of a rewarding omnichannel customer experience. This enhancement not only fosters increased customer loyalty but also effectively addresses the prevailing pain points experienced by park and attractions operators on a global scale.
The combined operations are uniquely positioned within the ticketed attraction industry with an array of offerings also including Mobile Apps that boast an exceptional average rating of 4.6 across over 37,000 reviews, Interactive Maps encompassing over 2,500 resorts worldwide, and new intuitive features like mobile ski pass. Notably, the Skitude community app for mountain skiers further complements the portfolio. With a global presence reflected in team members’ spanning continents, the Company is poised to redefine the standards of technological innovation for resorts and attractions.
Boasting an impressive track record spanning over a decade, Spotlio has emerged as the forefront provider of white-label digital solutions for destinations. Noteworthy customers include globally recognized resorts such as Aspen Snowmass, Vail Resorts, and Crans Montana. Catalate, renowned for its expertise in dynamic pricing services and e-commerce, has achieved remarkable milestones, having facilitated more than USD 1 billion in online sales across the parks and attractions landscape.
On ne saurait trop insister sur l’importance stratégique du soutien aux clients par le biais d’un réseau de partenariats. Spotlio et Catalate, grâce à leurs forces combinées, ont favorisé des collaborations précieuses avec des leaders de l’industrie tels que Inntopia, Skidata, Axess, JB Concepts et Aspenware, entre autres. Ces partenariats sont déterminants pour renforcer les offres de services, stimuler l’innovation et faire en sorte que Spotlio fournisse les solutions les plus complètes en matière de technologie numérique des destinations. En tirant parti de l’expertise et des capacités des partenaires technologiques, Spotlio est mieux équipé pour contribuer à l’évolution des secteurs des stations, des parcs et des loisirs.
In a strategic move to transform the business, the focus remains on strengthening competitiveness, delivering sustainable growth, and maintaining the path to profitability. As part of this strategy, Liftoptia.com will be discontinued as a brand, and in this regard the Company will also consider divesting Liftopia.com. This decision further reflects our commitment to streamline operations and align resources with long-term vision and goals. The discontinuation of Liftopia.com will enable Spotlio to enhance operational efficiency, bolster core offerings, and ultimately deliver greater value to clients and stakeholders.
“Aujourd’hui marque un moment charnière dans notre parcours”, a déclaré Christian Erlandson, PDG du groupe Spotlio.” L’union de Spotlio et de Catalate allume une ère de possibilités illimitées, où notre expertise collective remodèlera le paysage de la technologie numérique des destinations.”
Le changement de marque des opérations combinées sous la marque consolidée Spotlio, ainsi que le changement de nom de la société mère de Canopy Holdings AS à Spotlio AS, signifient l’harmonisation de la vision et un engagement commun à fournir une valeur inégalée aux clients dans le monde entier. Cet alignement stratégique ouvre la voie à un avenir caractérisé par l’innovation, la croissance et les expériences transformatrices.
