Beekeeper
About
Beekeeper is a Zurich-based enterprise software company founded in 2012 by Cristian Grossmann and Flavio Pfaffhauser to build a communication and operations platform for frontline workers — those in manufacturing, hospitality, retail, and logistics who don't sit at a desk. The platform provides a mobile-first digital workspace enabling team messaging, task management, document sharing, and HR workflows for workers without corporate email addresses. Beekeeper raised a Series C in 2021 led by Alpana Ventures with participation from Atomico and Swiss Post, bringing total funding to over $100 million. The platform is used by companies including Marriott, Hilton, and Heathrow Airport, supporting over 1,000 enterprise customers globally. Beekeeper is a flagship example of Zurich's SaaS ecosystem building at the intersection of human capital management and operational technology.
