Mobile Geeks becomes part of the BASIC thinking family
We have exciting news for you: Mobile Geeks International and Mobile Geeks Germany will be part of the BASIC thinking GmbH. Mobile geeks and BASIC thinking have a long history in Germany – I am very happy about this partnership. I don’t think Mobile Geeks could have found a better home. Going forward, we’ll remain the same geeks you’ve come to know and love – but with a new and freshly invigorated focus to keep moving forward in the more competitive media landscape.
Look forward to new formats, high-quality test reports, opinions and news – with the existing editorial team supported by the BASIC thinking team. BASIC thinking is currently developing a new concept for the Youtube channel, which, with over 260,000 subscribers and more than 200 million video views, has enormous potential for new journalistic formats. The construction of a studio and a video team are already underway.
“What Nicole and Sascha have built up at Mobile Geeks is unique in German tech reporting. I am proud and grateful that with this takeover we are uniting two media brands with a long history and can start immediately into a common journalistic future. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Nicole, Sascha and the entire Mobile Geeks team for their uncomplicated and energetic support during the ongoing integration.”
– Tobias Gillen, Managing Director BASIC thinking
The last ten years have been an incredible journey for me. My love for mobile geeks and my passion for storytelling are still huge. My journey now takes me to Beyond Innovation, a global series on Bloomberg TV, where I will continue to find and tell the most compelling stories from the tech industry. But you will still see me here in the magazine and on the YouTube channel from time to time – I promise.
So stay tuned, exciting things are coming your way!
