Our identity needed to evolve to reflect <a href=\"https:\/\/www.checkyeti.com\/en\/staticPage\/about\">wh<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.checkyeti.com\/en\/staticPage\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">o<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.checkyeti.com\/en\/staticPage\/about\"> we are<\/a> today: a brand that celebrates adventure all year round, from snowy peaks to sunny beaches. The rebrand is a natural step \u2014 one that matches our growth and inspires even more people to discover the outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: Georg, as Co-Founder, how does it feel to see checkyeti take this step?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Georg<\/span>: It\u2019s a proud moment. When we started, booking a ski lesson online was still a novelty for many. Today, we\u2019re helping millions of people find outdoor adventures across Europe. This rebrand is more than new colours or a logo \u2014 it\u2019s the result of a holistic brand strategy process that builds upon our company purpose and values. It\u2019s a milestone that celebrates how far we\u2019ve come and the adventures still waiting ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: What does the new branding represent about checkyeti\u2019s identity today?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Jakob<\/span>: It reflects our spirit: bold, joyful, and adventurous. We wanted an identity that feels energetic and modern, while staying true to our promise, making outdoor adventures easy to discover and creating memories that last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/checkyeti-rebranding-ceo-jakob-keller-co-founder-georg-reich-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/checkyeti-rebranding-ceo-jakob-keller-co-founder-georg-reich-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/checkyeti-rebranding-ceo-jakob-keller-co-founder-georg-reich-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/checkyeti-rebranding-ceo-jakob-keller-co-founder-georg-reich-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/checkyeti-rebranding-ceo-jakob-keller-co-founder-georg-reich-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/checkyeti-rebranding-ceo-jakob-keller-co-founder-georg-reich-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">checkyeti&#8217;s Co-Founder and COO\/CFO Georg Reich (l) and CEO, Jakob Keller (r), in their Vienna office.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Team &amp; Culture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: What role has the team played in shaping checkyeti into what it is today?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Jakob<\/span>: The team has been absolutely integral, not only in building the company, but also in shaping this rebrand. From the start, we wanted our brand to grow from the inside out, shaped by our values and by the feelings our adventures create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We kept coming back to two simple questions: How do we want our customers to feel? And where can those feelings truly come alive? The answer was always the same: in those special moments before, during, and after an outdoor adventure. The anticipation before setting off. The joy and adrenaline in the middle of it. The sense of fulfilment and memory-making afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s how the idea of #YetiMoments was born. It captures the essence of what we create: powerful, emotional moments in nature that stay with you long after the adventure ends. You could say that through this process, we rediscovered our inner Yeti.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: How would you describe the company culture at checkyeti in a few words?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Georg<\/span>: Bold, joyful, honest, persistent, and caring. These values aren\u2019t just words, they guide how we work together every day and inspire the brand you see today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/rebranding-checkyeti-team-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/rebranding-checkyeti-team-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/rebranding-checkyeti-team-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/rebranding-checkyeti-team-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/rebranding-checkyeti-team-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog-cdn.checkyeti.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/rebranding-checkyeti-team-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The checkyeti team celebrating the new branding<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customers &amp; Community<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: How does the rebrand benefit your customers and partners?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Jakob<\/span>: The rebrand makes checkyeti more recognizable and accessible. For customers, it\u2019s about sparking excitement and making it even easier to plan adventures. For partners, it shows we\u2019re committed to growing together, investing in technology, and improving the way we connect them with travellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: What is one thing you want customers to feel when they think of checkyeti?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Georg<\/span>: Joy. The joy of discovering something new, of feeling free in nature, of creating memories with friends and family. That\u2019s what checkyeti is all about. Or as Jakob put it: their very own #YetiMoment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking Ahead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: What are your hopes and goals for checkyeti in the coming years?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Jakob<\/span>: Our ambition is to become the go-to platform for outdoor activities in Europe and beyond.
