This operation took place after raising almost 35 million euros in June last year, and through which the US fund Kleiner Perkins was in participation.

Spotahome gains international presence. The home rental start-up has opened offices in Berlin, Milan, Paris, Lisbon, and Dublin during the summer. In the coming weeks, Brussels will join the list.

"The objective of these openings is to work more closely with the local market and in a more personalized way with owners and tenants in each of the countries," says Alejandro Artacho, CEO and Founder of Spotahome, in a statement sent by the company. "Thanks to these new offices we expect a clear improvement in the service offered by the company," he adds.

In Spain, the company has recently appointed Eduardo Garbayo as the new General Manager with the aim of leading the development of the company's national market. In recent months, the start-up has incorporated signings of large companies such as Cleo Sham, Director of Operations from Uber in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region, or Balaji Nageswaran, former Director of Several Product Lines from Amazon.

These operations have taken place after the round of forty million dollars (34.1 million euros) raised in 2018. With this operation, the company opened its capital to the US fund Kleiner Perkins. Investors such as Seaya Ventures or Passion Capital also attended the round.
