Zurich/Los Angeles - Dating platform noii, located in the Greater Zurich Area, has acquired the Los Angeles-based Matter Group. This means it now has access to expertise in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for dating platforms. noii intends to integrate AI into its own platform in the future.

Zurich company noii land AG has acquired the Los Angeles-based Matter Group, according to a press release. Both companies specialize in digital dating platforms.
