At Odders, innovation has always been part of our DNA. From our home in Seville, we’ve spent the past six years building immersive experiences that connect technology, creativity, and people. Today, we’re proud to share an important milestone in that journey: Odders has secured strategic backing from CaixaBank’s DayOne and Axon Partners Group to accelerate our expansion into Augmented Reality (AR) and smart glasses.

This marks a new chapter for us — one that builds on everything we’ve learned from creating experiences in Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR), and takes it to the next level.

From XR Pioneers to AR Innovators

Since our founding in 2019, we’ve released six products in six years and established a presence across all major XR platforms, including Meta Quest, PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, PICO, and soon Apple Vision Pro and Android XR. Our journey began in immersive gaming and fitness, where projects like Chess Club and Les Mills XR BODYCOMBAT — named App of the Year 2022 on Meta Quest — helped define what XR interaction and engagement can be.

Now, we’re taking that experience and applying it to the next frontier: Augmented Reality and smart glasses. We see a tremendous opportunity to bring digital layers into real-world environments, transforming how people work, play, and stay active.

A Partnership to Power What’s Next

The support from CaixaBank DayOne and Axon Partners Group gives us the momentum and resources to lead this evolution. CaixaBank DayOne, through its specialized program for high-growth startups, has long been a driving force for innovation in Spain. Axon Partners Group, through its Axon Desarrollo Andalucía fund — backed by the European Investment Bank and the Andalusian Government — focuses on advancing R&D, innovation, and digitalization in the region.

Together, these partnerships strengthen our mission to make Andalusia a hub for next-generation AR and immersive technology.

As I said in our announcement, “With the backing of DayOne by CaixaBank and Axon Partners Group, we’re moving forward steadily to consolidate our position as European leaders in Augmented Reality.”

Looking Ahead

The future we’re building isn’t just about devices — it’s about experiences that enhance daily life. With the rise of smart glasses and platforms like Meta Ray-Ban Display and Apple Vision Pro, the line between the digital and physical worlds is blurring faster than ever.

At Odders, we’re excited to be at the forefront of that transformation — creating tools, games, and experiences that empower people through AR. Our goal is simple: to keep experimenting, learning, and pushing the limits of what’s possible in extended reality.

And with the trust and partnership of CaixaBank DayOne and Axon Partners Group, we’re ready to make that vision a reality.
