Investor Relations

About us
“Founding Bolt as a 19-year-old in Estonia, we faced difficult odds from day one. We created a unique culture of small, fast-moving, and high-performance teams, serving customers better than companies with far more resources. Fast forward to today, and we’re one of the leading tech companies in Europe and Africa. And we're still only 1% done.”
Markus Villig,
Founder and CEO of Bolt
