COLOGNE, Germany, 21 May 2014 – Qeep, the social discovery app is making friendly inroads into the east. With the launch of a Russian version of the app, users from east and west can now easily become friends, chat and flirt, and compete in online games. Current political problems aside, qeep offers the chance for friendship across borders and cultures.

“After successfully establishing our Latin American userbase and with Western Europe and Turkey still growing at a steady pace, Eastern Europe was our logical next target,” explains Christian Schulte, Co-founder and Managing Director of BLUE LION mobile, “We expect significant growth from this region and see a well-established infrastructure through which we can monetize our app.”

With the launch of the Russian version, qeep will gain access to a potential userbase of approximately 280 million Russian-speakers worldwide. Russian users spend around nine hours a day on social networks, making them among the most active in the world. Establishing its app in this new market with well-positioned local players should prove to be an interesting and rewarding challenge for the Cologne-based team. Chances are the 30 millionth user will greet the community with a friendly “добрый день!”
