Beat partners with EDRKin Estonia for multiple Baltics launches

Beat Technology has partnered with EDRK, the Tallinn-based digital content aggregator, publisher, distributor for Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia. The cooperation will see Beat design, build and power services across a range of EDRK’s partners in Baltics. The companies under EDRK’s umbrella include Alma Littera and Pegasas – the largest publisher and book retailer respectably in Lithuania; Rahva Raamat Estonia’s largest book retailer and Maurus, one of Estonia’s largest educational content provider.

The cooperation will see Beat Technology’s tech stack – offering of ebook, audiobook and podcast white-label apps and retail solutions – combine with EDRK’s businesses and digital distribution infrastructure. The first iteration of this new partnership will appear in May.

“In recent years the investment in the technology, literature and reading space in the Baltic region by EDRK and their backers has been hugely impressive,” says Nathan Hull, Chief Strategy Officer at Beat Technology.
