GoPro’s founder and CEO, Nicholas Woodman officially opened the outdoor camera brand’s European Headquarters in Munich last night. Woodman kicked the party off with a highlight video featuring GoPro’s European athlete team.
Even before the official opening of the headquarters, GoPro had laid a strong foundation for a successful future in Europe. In 2014, GoPro will be involved in approximately 100 events in 14 European countries including the Freeride World Tour and UCI Downhill World Cup series. In addition, GoPro is excited to partner with nine action sports resorts in total, located in the Alps and Scandinavia.
(In October 2013, Ironman brand owner World Triathlon Corp (WTC) confirmed GoPro as the title sponsor of the 2013 Ironman World Championship and the Official Camera of the Ironman World Championship.)
After a modest start in 2007, GoPro cameras and accessories are now sold in more than 12,000 stores and specialty shops across 14 European countries.
GoPro makes the ‘world’s best-selling and most versatile cameras’, enabling people to capture immersive and engaging footage of themselves during their favourite activities. GoPro notes that its HERO line of wearable and gear mountable cameras are used collectively by more consumers, professional athletes and video production professionals than any other camera in the world.
Based in San Mateo, California, GoPro’s products are sold in more than 35,000 stores in over 100 countries worldwide and direct via GoPro.com.
