The international law firm Taylor Wessing, led by Munich-based partner Philip Cavaillès, advised OrderYOYO on all German related aspects of the transaction.

Upon completion of the transaction, the Happz’ employees and founders will be transitioned to OrderYOYO Deutschland GmbH. The two founders providing strong and innovative product and technology profiles will along with the OrderYOYO-Team establish a development hub in Berlin under the leadership of CTO Ralf Sohl.
