Excited to build Bumble鈥檚 next chapter with @GuptaRK22 , @johnwhegeman and the Ithaca team. I founded Bumble 12 years ago on the belief that meaningful human connection makes life better. In a world increasingly shaped by technology, we believe that mission is more important than ever. Here鈥檚 to the journey ahead! 馃挍
Today we announced an agreement to acquire Bumble.View quoted post on X
Over the past six months, we鈥檝e looked at hundreds of companies, asking which businesses would become more valuable as AI advances.聽
Bumble stood out.聽
As intelligence becomes more abundant, we believe connecting with the right person and forming meaningful relationships will become even more precious. And frontier technology can help more people find and build those relationships.
Our purpose at Ithaca is to apply frontier technology to things that matter. We acquire enduring businesses, transform them with technology, and hold for the long term. We focus on businesses not only for their financial potential but their ability to enrich lives.
Whitney and her team have built something extraordinary. Millions of relationships began on Bumble, and we鈥檙e honored to help take it into its next era. Together we intend to build the best company in the world for helping people find each other.
Let鈥檚 get to work.
