Making wellness rituals accessible in all urban cities. Making balance an integral part of the cosmopolitan urban lifestyle.

In the three years since their launch, they’ve grown to sixty plus people, can be found in five cities across Europe, and have matched thousands of people with hundreds of expert massage therapists. It’s a fast paced but nurturing atmosphere that manages to balance the fire and excitement of a start-up with the care and mindfulness expected from the wellness industry. The global wellness industry is poised to grow to a $5 trillion industry by 2020. And there is very limited competition. With their first service vertical, Urban Massage, they are a first mover. Their business is showing impressive growth metrics and unit economics. And they have already successfully conquered the European market. Now they are expanding across the globe. And into the other key verticals of the wellness industry. The opportunity is huge.
Project: Open access for classes and mental health therapies.
Summary: Urban, the wellbeing startup in the UK, has gone digital — and is offering discounts for customers due to COVID-19 pandemic.
