Our take
Gyms and personal trainers can benefit hugely from digital technology, but adopting and maximizing the value of this technology can be highly complex. Virtuagym solves this problem by providing fitness businesses with an all-in-one digital solution.
Virtuagym's software allows gyms and trainers to manage memberships and billing, and its customer-facing apps offer solutions to track clients' progress and nutrition guidance. This two-pronged approach has proven a real draw for the company, which now supports over 9,000 health clubs and 40,000 trainers worldwide.
Virtuagym has seen impressive growth in recent years, and with the gym management software projected to reach a value of more than $8,000 billion in Europe alone by 2029, it is in a good position to continue scaling. This is especially so thanks to upgrades to its platform, including video workout features that will help it stay at a level head with competitors such as Zenoti and Mindbody.
