We are pleased to announce that we have signed an agreement for the acquisition of a minority stake in Spaarkly – a digitally native company that specializes in developing innovative e-commerce solutions using augmented reality technologies. The collaboration with Spaarkly began in December 2022 when Safilo launched Polaroid’s new “Instant Try-on” experience, allowing everyone to virtually and instantly try the new Polaroid collection. Since then, Safilo has been using Spaarkly’s ARshades, a complete suite of software and services for virtual eyewear try-on, to enhance above all Polaroid and Carrera’s e-commerce websites. This partnership aims to leverage Spaarkly’s capabilities, bringing to the market increasingly advanced AR solutions and other disruptive, cutting-edge products. #thesafiloway #SeeTheWorldAtItsBest
