Copenhagen podcast startup Podimo partners with Troop to support podcasting in Mexico and LATAM

Podimo, the subscription service for podcasts and audiobooks, has announced a strategic alliance with Troop,  that will allow them to offer new ways to create and listen to high quality content. Almost a year after its launch in Mexico, Podimo already has thousands of subscribers, while Troop has managed, in a very short time, to consolidate an audio division that is an essential reference in the region.

While Podimo brings a cutting-edge technological platform, an attractive portfolio of shows, and a wealth of international experience to the table, Troop will provide local expertise and infrastructure to promote and produce content in-house with the help of an experienced production team, reinforcing its position as a first-class media hub.

Joaquín Colino, CEO, Troop and Regional General Manager, Podimo LATAM: "In the dynamic audio universe, we are excited to announce the integration of Podimo to Troop, consolidating our presence in the Mexico, US Hispanics and Latin American markets. Podimo proves to be the ideal partner, with a spectacular platform designed to meet the needs of the most demanding and passionate audio enthusiasts, says. With this alliance, Troop will continue to expand its audio division, generating content not only for Podimo but also for the rest of the audio platforms in the market, with clearly differentiated strategies that will generate an interesting and necessary synergy for the strengthening of the industry and the growth of audiences, who will benefit from the unique and exciting experiences that our content guarantees."

Morten Strunge, CEO and Founder, Podimo: "Podimo's local-first approach is further strengthened by Troop, who shares our mission, vision, and dedication to a subscription-based model. Together, we will amplify our investment in local creators, cultivate new podcast audiences, and elevate our original content through a unique product experience. Our continued focus is on attracting top-tier talent and fostering a community in the Latin American spoken audio entertainment landscape.”

This strategic alliance between Podimo and Troop opens doors to a wider range of opportunities for local creators, listeners, and the industry at large, and will provide a significant boost in the market. Additionally, through the curation of a powerful pool of intellectual property, the collaboration sets the stage for diverse adaptations and formats, securing a path to becoming the most attractive player in spoken audio entertainment in the region.

Wendolín Perla, Head of Content, Podimo LATAM: "We have seen the enormous potential that the subscription model has for the podcast format, it's very exciting what has happened in such a short time. However, as we went along, it became clear how important it was to have a local partner that understood the opportunities and complexities of the Mexican market and that would provide us with the strength and infrastructure to become a great Content Hub: with Troop, we will guarantee our consolidation and expansion in the region."
