35-Year-Old Earns €51 Million with a Simple Idea: SmartLunch

An idea in a café led Mateusz Tałpasz to create SmartLunch, now generating €51 million in revenue with over 800 corporate clients.
At 35, SmartLunch co-founder and CEO Mateusz Tałpasz has seen his company's revenue exceed €51 million, starting from an observation in a Wrocław café.
The inspiration came when he noticed employees manually recording their meals. This time-consuming process led to the creation of a system that automates the recording and invoicing of corporate meals.
Today, SmartLunch partners with over 800 corporate clients, serves over 100,000 active users per month, and has expanded into the Czech Republic. Over 52 million meals have been provided. Revenue increased from €20 million in 2022 to €51 million in 2024, with a target of €230 million by 2028.
Tałpasz emphasizes that this goal is realistic but requires a lot of work.
