Founded in 2020 by Jimmy Hermans and Thijmen Verkerk, Eindhoven-based CityLegends offers a social, media, and gaming platform where street sports enthusiasts can share clips, discover local spots, and compete in street-esports challenges while tracking performance against peers. The product blends user-generated content, location discovery, and competitive gameplay to foster engagement among athletes, creators, and their audiences. Looking ahead, the team plans to broaden both free and paid feature sets, introduce culture playbooks for brand partnerships, and expand its B2B media unit. The fresh capital will also finance international market expansion.
