In 2010, EGYM's founders recognized a critical gap in the fitness industry: the lack of personalized training in gyms. Beginners were intimidated by complex equipment, while gym operators struggled to keep members motivated and engaged. The traditional gym experience was broken - workouts weren't personalized, progress was hard to track, and most importantly, the connection between exercise and real health outcomes was missing. Philipp Roesch-Schlanderer and Florian Schoch founded EGYM with a clear mission to transform healthcare from repair to prevention by making fitness smarter and more accessible to everyone.
What started as an idea has evolved into a global fitness technology leader with over 700 employees across dozens of locations worldwide. EGYM's ecosystem now powers over 24,500 clubs globally, serving 18 million exercisers who have completed more than 70 million tracked workouts in a single year. The company's open platform integrates its own smart gym equipment and digital solutions with products from over 200 of the world's leading fitness brands, creating a comprehensive connected fitness experience. From smart strength machines that automatically adjust to users' personalized settings, to AI-powered training through EGYM Genius, the company continues to innovate at the intersection of fitness and technology, helping people achieve real health outcomes through data-driven, personalized workouts.
