Smart learning solutions for your teams
Founded in 2015, Quofox is an online platform for corporate learning and development. It offers a variety of courses and learning opportunities that can be tailored to the needs of organisations of various sizes.
The company also provides gamification, social learning, and analytics to assist employers in tracking employee growth and engagement. Its overall goal is to make corporate training more effective, entertaining, and accessible for both employees and enterprises.

Within the next two years, Archipel Academy hopes to become the largest educational marketplace in the DACH area. The acquisition underscores the company’s goals of providing “top-class” experiences while also making a substantial social impact.
To improve and broaden its services, Archipel Academy will work with Quofox, which has an in-depth understanding of the DACH market. The acquisition will also strengthen the two businesses’ position in the market for learning and development solutions.
