Founded in İzmir in 2022, HubX operates with more than 370 employees at its offices in İzmir and İstanbul. The company’s portfolio of more than 40 mobile and web applications has reached more than 600 million users in more than 190 countries.

The new investment from Point72 Private Investments will focus on accelerating the growth of HubX’s existing products and expanding its global merger and acquisition activities. HubX aims to bring applications with strong user experiences and product metrics, successful teams, and promising technology companies into its ecosystem, and to scale these products globally through its own technology, artificial intelligence, data, and global marketing infrastructure.

Why it matters

The investment’s valuation of HubX at 1.2 billion dollars and its elevation to unicorn status show that the company is positioning itself not merely as a venture developing applications, but as a broader structure that aims to grow through the acquisition of products and teams. In addition to improving the performance of existing applications, this direction also raises the possibility of integrating different technology companies into HubX’s technology, artificial intelligence, data, and global marketing infrastructure. The development concerns not only teams interested in products in HubX’s portfolio, but also the technology companies targeted for inclusion in the ecosystem. However, it is not yet clear which products the investment will prioritize, which companies or teams will be involved in the acquisition process, or how global growth will change the portfolio.

Background
