“We are proud to continue Vuori’s expansion outside of the US,” said Joe Kudla, Founder and CEO of Vuori. “We are excited to bring our vision and brand to consumers in these key markets, connecting with customers around the world.”

The move comes as part of Vuori’s larger international ambitions. Earlier this year, the maker of performance and leisure apparel opened its first international markets in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Australia, and Canada. The brand continues to grow in those countries, through eCommerce, wholesale and retail channels. Vuori opened its first store outside of the US in London’s Covent Garden earlier this month, and added a few key new wholesale partners in the fall, including Harrods and Equinox in the UK, and Breuninger in Germany.

Next year, the brand intends to launch in Japan and Korea (via partnership), while opening additional stores in the UK and building on the foundations across all channels in its initial markets.

Established in 2015 by Founder and CEO Joe Kudla, Vuori has grown to unicorn status thanks to its differentiated, versatile perspective on performance apparel. Expansion outside of the US is a key strategy for furthering the brand’s growth and profitability. Last year, Vuori received a $400 million investment by the SoftBank Vision Fund 2, which valued the brand at $4 billion.

As it reaches new markets around the globe, Vuori continues to enrich its product offering, support its sustainability goals and make key investments in infrastructure and people. The brand plans to operate 100 stores in the US by 2026 and will hire 100 additional people to work at its California headquarters by the end of 2022. This year, Joe Kudla was named an Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2022 Pacific Southwest Award winner by Ernst & Young and Vuori also announced it is Climate Neutral Certified for the third year in a row.

Bybit CEO Calls For Wall St to Embrace Crypto

Wall St Should Look to Adapt to Crypto, Not the Other Way Around

VICTORIA, SEYCHELLES – Media OutReach – 28 September 2022 – Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit, the top 3 crypto exchanges in the world by web traffic, has called for the traditional markets to embrace the change being driven by crypto.

Speaking at the Pantera Blockchain Summit Asia this week, Zhou discussed the growing convergence between traditional financial institutions and crypto. “The infrastructure is already in place and large institutions are already exploring and engaging at multiple levels with crypto leaders,” he commented. 

But he said, “Wall St could do a lot more to truly embrace the innovation in the market and remain relevant.” adding that traditional financial service firms run the risk of facing the same fate as Nokia.

“Wall St has much more to gain if it embraces crypto, rather than the other way around.” he added.

Zhou was referring to Wall St’s traditional approach of assimilating innovation, within its increasingly outdated business model, only to see the innovation stifled and suffocated under internal processes and restrictions.  

“There is a new financial services model for the world that is rapidly evolving,” the crypto CEO said. “The energy, innovation, and momentum are all with crypto.” 

He used the exodus of talent to illustrate his point and how ‘The Street’ needs to catch up in this crypto race so as not lose out as top performers. “Talent is attracted to crypto by its faster-paced environments, its hunger, and its unrestricted ability to innovate,” he said.

Moderator Franklin Bi, confirmed as much when he talked of how during his time on Wall St, it would take 2 to 3 years to bring a new product to market, not the 2 to 3 weeks it takes Bybit.

Zhou co-founded Bybit in 2018 as a crypto derivatives exchange with a handful of trading pairs. Since then, it has grown into a one-stop shop for all things crypto with a 10-million-strong user base. Zhou achieved this, he said, partly because of crypto’s “can do” attitude.
