This year started with a simple question: would this actually work? By early 2025, we received our first check, and from there the pace picked up quickly.

Here’s what this year looked like for Expio, in numbers and real signals from the market:

-200+ vetted experts joined the platform

-we expanded into new consultation markets: Greece, Egypt, and the UAE

-the most active regions for consultations were the UAE and the U.S.
fintech and e-commerce became the most requested industries

-we launched a new website, check it out: expio.io

-rolled out AI-based verification of our experts

-and the team drank around 500 cups of coffee along the way ☕️

What stood out most this year was a clear pattern we kept seeing across projects and markets: teams move faster and with fewer risks when they have access to the right local expertise early in the process. That insight continues to shape how we build Expio.

Thank you to our experts, partners, and teams who trusted us this year. Wishing everyone a smooth year-end and a strong start to the next one! ✨
