If you’re looking for a vacation house or apartment, you can turn to Holidu, a Munich startup that has developed a search engine for finding precisely this type of vacation residence. The company was founded in 2014 by Johannes and Michael Siebers. The brothers came up with the idea while planning a surf trip with friends. According to the company, Holidu is now active in 22 countries and has more than 400 employees. (Photo: Renate Forster – Holidu)
