A**ther few million for the sharing eco**my.*
VizEat, a European startup that lets travelers eat dinner in locals' homes, just raised €3.8 million (about $4.3 million) in a new funding round.*
The startup focused on "social dining" allows locals, mainly in Europe, to sign up to host dinners in their homes. The hosts set a price for the dinner, encompassing the cost of ingredients and any profit they want to make from the meal. Travelers or really anyone interested can pay to join the event. VizEat takes a fee on top of that, paid by the attendees.*
“For many holidaymakers, a VizEat food experience with locals is often the highlight of any trip. Because travelers don't have to radically change their travel habits to enjoy these great experiences, VizEat has partnered with a range of hospitality providers, harmoniously aligning itself with the tourism industry," VizEat CEO Jean-Michel Petit said in a statement. "This new round of funding will allow us to boost our growth plans so that we can bring our ultimate local food experiences to more people, in even more countries.” Read more...
