Oscar Visser heeft dit gedeeldFairphone is raising a Series C round of at least €50 million to accelerate growth and scale impact. While the broader smartphone market remains challenging, Fairphone is seeing strong demand for technology that is built to last, designed to be repaired, and made to create value beyond the point of sale. In the first half of 2026, phone sales grew 74% year on year. Our audio portfolio grew 39%, while accessories grew 115%. We are approaching 1 million devices sold and $500 million in cumulative revenue. These results reinforce a conviction at the heart of Fairphone: sustainability and commercial performance do not need to compete. As more people choose long-lasting, repairable hardware, we can expand our work to improve electronics supply chains, support living-wage programmes, and show that better product design can also be good business. We are opening a Series C funding round of at least €50 million to support the next phase of our growth—accelerating US market expansion, scaling our commercial reach, and strengthening supply-chain resilience in a volatile component environment. Thank you to our customers, partners, shareholders, and the Fairphone team for helping take us this far. The next phase is about bringing a more sustainable model for consumer technology to a far wider market. Read the full coverage from Het Financieele Dagblad in the first comment.

Oscar Visser heeft dit gedeeldIn the tech industry, traditional product cycles often rely on costly, full-scale redesigns every year. Those are costs that ultimately get passed on to the consumer. With the Fairphone (Gen. 6+), we chose a more financially sustainable path. By upgrading to the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 processor and 12GB RAM while maintaining our modular chassis, we maximised component efficiency and eliminated unnecessary tooling overhead. This smart platform reuse allowed us to deliver a high-performance, future-proof device backed by an industry-leading warranty of up to five years and software support guaranteed through 2033. When you evaluate technology by its total cost of ownership over five to seven years rather than just the initial sticker price, hardware that is modular and repairable proves to be the most financially sound choice on the market for both consumers and the planet.

Oscar Visser heeft dit gedeeldToday is a day of pride for Fairphone. We've just published our yearly impact report, proving what can be achieved when scale and impact are at the core of what is done. In 2025, we achieved our strongest sales performance to date while simultaneously reducing our environmental impact. Our total revenue grew by 35% year over year, with 145,259 smartphones shipped to customers. This represents a 42% increase from the previous year, alongside significant growth in our audio and accessories categories. Most importantly, we're proving that growth does not have to come at the expense of the planet. Despite shipping more devices, we achieved a 7.5% absolute reduction in total emissions, and our carbon intensity per phone sold dropped by 18% against our 2022 baseline. This progress is driven by our latest and greatest, The Fairphone (Gen. 6), which achieved a 30% reduction in its carbon footprint compared to the Fairphone 5 through smarter design, deeper supplier engagement, and increased recycled content. Our financial scaling acts as a direct catalyst for multiplying our social impact. In 2025, we distributed $215,000 in living wage bonuses to 1,650 factory workers. Overall, more than 11,000 people in our value chain experienced fairer working conditions this year. Since 2019, we have distributed a total of $1.25 million, directly improving the lives of thousands of families. To cap it off, we achieved a positive EBITDA for the second year in a row and turned our daily business operations cash positive. A lot of hard work went into getting this report out there and into your hands, so a huge thank you goes out to our incredible team, our partners, and our community for making it possible.

Oscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdOscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdBoy, I hope the Fairphonee social media team is all over this trend. What a gift they just got! The hottest trend on social media this week is people, mainly Gen Zs, posting joke photos of the organs they had to sell to afford the new iPhone 18. Yes, yes, the same Gen Zs who pride themselves on being the most ethical, socially aware, and cost-sensitive generation in history, now queuing for iPhones, taking loans to afford them, and joking about it on social media. According to the latest polls, around 87% of young people in the US either own or plan to buy a new iPhone. Why is this such good leverage for Fairphone? Because it's an opportunity to hold a mirror up to the trend and raise awareness: thanks to its fair labour conditions and its use of responsibly sourced materials, no worker and no child has to sacrifice their health. And all in a price that also allows their buyers to keep the kidneys in place too. The internet is running gags about what the phone costs? A rare chance to show them who really pays for it.

Oscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdOscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdIn this episode of The Boon of Wireless, I sit down with Nora Levinson, U.S. General Manager of fairphone, to ask whether smartphones really need replacing so often. Nora shares fairphone’s origins, its U.S. expansion, and a hands-on teardown showing how easily the battery, screen, USB port, and cameras can be swapped. She also covers the 5-year warranty and why fairphone users keep their phones 6+ years. The future is here on self-repairing your handset. #MVNO #Mobile #Wireless #MVNE #MVNO https://lnkd.in/eiTqREEw

Oscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdOscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdAfter a few years of absence I have the honour to be part of Amsterdam Dance Event again in a panel about lowering the impact of touring. With DGTL we were advocates of a sustainable event industry and we were very much involved in @ADE Green with Carlijn Lindemulder and Lyke Poortvliet doing panels and connecting to event professionals from all over the world. Since 2 years I am now part of Showpower Global B.V. revolutionising the touring industry with our cutting-edge battery technology powering the biggest stages for the biggest artists in the world. Showpower feels like such a natural step for me after what we did with DGTL. We used to implement the newest technology to lower emissions on the Power and Energy side of the event. DGTL was one of the first clients of Greener Power Solutions to power the event with batteries and with Watermeln 🍉⚡ to help power the event with Hydrogen. So I am no stranger to doing things differently. Now, it's time to push the entire stadium touring industry towards a lower emission with the same reliability. Live culture is becoming bigger, more technical, more visible and more valuable; NOW it's the time to give it the energy that understands it 🔋 If you want to know more about it, come and checkout my panel @ADE Green Take a look at the full program here: https://lnkd.in/e5m6vfzy

Oscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdThe strategy is rarely the hardest part. Execution is. Over the past months, I’ve been reminded of something I’ve learned repeatedly in strategy delivery: A good strategy can fit on a page. Delivering it takes an organisation. Launching the Fairphone Gen 6+ across Europe and the US required much more than a strong product proposition. It required: Hundreds of decisions. Trade-offs. Cross-functional alignment. Relentless follow through. And, most importantly, people willing to take ownership beyond their individual roles. The role of strategy isn’t to have all the answers. It’s to create clarity on where we’re going, alignment on why it matters and the conditions for teams to move quickly and confidently. That’s when strategy starts creating value. And that’s what I enjoy most about strategy delivery: Turning complexity into clarity. And clarity into action. Proud of what the team has delivered with the Gen 6+. And even more excited about what we can deliver next. Strategy → alignment → execution → impact. #Leadership #Strategy #Execution #StrategyDelivery #Fairphone

Oscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdOscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdIt’s not the most efficient way to work – considering every detail. But in a world where images can be generated in seconds, making something tangible and intentional creates more value than ever. For the launch of the new Fairphone (Gen. 6+), we designed a seeding box for journalists and influencers. The box follows the phone’s minimalist and modular design language, while helping to build PR momentum and inspire people to create great content. Without compromising on performance, The Fairphone (Gen. 6+) proves that more sustainable consumer tech is possible. With EU legislation shifting towards greater repairability, it’s becoming clear that Fairphone is changing the market for good. Thank you for letting me join the ride and all the support along the way. Alon Brandt, Jan Blaffert, Sharon van der Hagen, Sarah Short, Lora Haspels, Kuriakose Vaisian

Oscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerdWow, wat schiet het op! Succes Stöcklin Logistik Group met de bouw van de installatie.Oscar Visser heeft hierop gereageerd🏗️ Een mooie mijlpaal voor ons nieuwe KB Boekenmagazijn in aanbouw, in de Harnaschpolder in Midden-Delfland. Eind augustus droeg Kirsten van Zeijl namens de opdrachtgever, het Rijksvastgoedbedrijf, de sleutels van het magazijngedeelte over aan Martin Malik van Stöcklin. Daarmee kan de volgende fase beginnen: de inpandige bouw van de geavanceerde logistieke installatie. Een bijzondere, en zeker geen eenvoudige opdracht. Zo komen er in ons hypermoderne magazijn 17 meter hoge stellingen. Deze zijn ontworpen om de volledige collectie kranten, boeken en tijdschriften van de KB nationale bibliotheek zorgvuldig in op te slaan. Onze 122 kilometer aan Nederlands geschreven erfgoed wordt niet langer op boekenplanken gezet, maar straks verdeeld over ruim 220.000 containers. Een geautomatiseerd logistiek systeem bedient de containers. We combineren in het nieuwe magazijn moderne en eeuwenlang beproefde technieken. Daar kun je meer over lezen op onze website: https://lnkd.in/eCcSbjX4 📸: Kirsten van Zeijl (Rijksvastgoedbedrijf) draagt de sleutels over aan Martin Malik (Stöcklin) voor het nieuwe KB boekenmagazijn.

Trade fairs are noisy. Everyone is selling. Everyone is “innovative.” And many booths get ignored. If you want attention, you have to be intentional — and a bit creative. At Intertraffic Amsterdam 2026, we decided not to just talk about our parking and yard management solution… we made people experience it. We combined a Temi robot with live demo flows, turning our booth into something interactive and difficult to ignore. The result? The robot pulled people in! We showcased real use cases instead of slides and most interestingly — Temi brought us contacts from our competitors’ partners who would have otherwise just walked past. It wasn’t about the robot itself. It was about creating a moment that sparks curiosity and lowers the barrier to engage. In crowded environments, attention is earned — not given. If you're going to a trade fair, ask yourself: Why would someone stop at your booth instead of the 50 others around you? If you don’t have a clear answer, you’re already invisible.
