Strava has announced plans to open an office in Dublin to accommodate rapid growth and leverage the area's diverse technology talent pool.

The international expansion comes at a high-momentum moment for Strava as its global community continues to grow rapidly, adding two million athletes every month. In addition to its corporate headquarters in San Francisco, California and offices in Denver, Colorado and Bristol, UK, Strava's Dublin-based team will serve athletes across Europe and around the world.

"Expanding in Dublin is a great opportunity for our growing company to become a technology leader in Ireland and the EU, and our team will do this by remaining steadfastly committed to our athlete community. Proximity to our UK office and our large and highly active European athlete community ensures our Ireland-based team will make huge contributions toward fulfilling our mission and sustaining our company culture," said Michael Horvath, Strava CEO.

So far this year, Strava has hired 10 full time employees in Dublin across its product, design, engineering and community management teams and is actively recruiting for additional roles with plans to double its local headcount soon. Strava is supported by the Irish Government through IDA Ireland.
