Where it all began
Our company began in 2019 after merging three customer-obsessed hosting groups: Combell Group, TransIP Group, and Register Group. Since then, many new businesses have joined team.blue, and we are constantly welcoming new brands into the team.blue family.
Where we are now
Since 2019, we have scaled significantly, acquiring many businesses across Europe. This has expanded team.blue's operations to 22 European countries and across multiple new online solutions. Our customer-obsessed team is ideally positioned to enhance SMEs' online growth through innovation, gaining brand recognition so they can attract more customers.
