Business career[edit]

Bauck is one of the two founders of HotelOnline,[3] a Nairobi-based, pan-African travel technology company that he co-founded with Endre Opdal in 2013.[4][3] Before HotelOnline, Bauck was noted for his earlier venture, Nairobi Airport Hotel, the first known short-term apartment rental services in East Africa,[1][2][5][6] and Savanna Sunrise, an early digital marketing service provider in East Africa. He later combined Savanna Sunrise with a Polish competitor to form HotelOnline in a cross-border merger in 2017.[1][5][7][8]

In 2020 and 2021, Bauck was noted for acquiring several competitors during Covid-19 pandemic[13][6] and for the acquisition of Kenyan competitor HotelPlus in 2022,[14][15][16] while raising an investment round from Korean travel technology unicorn[17] and Softbank portfolio investee Yanolja in the same year.[14][15][16][18]
