KAMPALA | LIFESTYLE UGANDA — American rapper Armando Christian Pérez, better known as Pitbull, has invested in Peloton’s competitor Echelon Fitness. This is part of his strategy to invest in innovative technologies that he sees as having potential to change the fitness industry. He believes that Echelon’s focus on affordability and accessibility to fitness will be a game-changer in the industry.

Echelon has also agreed to give Pitbull an exclusive content channel and a stake in the company as part of the deal. Additionally, he will release an I Feel Good theme song for the brand.

Pitbull’s investment in Echelon comes eight months after the company launched a fully licensed music offering with MediaNet.

Echelon also announced six months ago that it had completed a $65 million financing round led by Goldman Sachs Growth. The investment was intended to help the company accelerate its growth and expand its product and service offering. It also enabled Echelon to capitalize on opportunities from the global shift to digital technology.

With a monthly subscription, Echelon offers a range of exercise bikes and live and on-demand classes, similar to competitor Peloton, which has been sued by music publishers for copyright infringement.

The company announced in November it had grown nearly 600% since its launch in 2017.

Echelon was sued by Peloton in 2019 for allegedly copying elements of its bikes. In response, Echelon filed a petition to invalidate a number of Peloton’s US patents in early 2020.
