Gig economy platform Airtaskerâs global expansion plans have come under a cloud, as the recently listed company locks horns with tech giant Airbnb on a trademark stoush in Europe.
Airtaskerâs stellar debut on the Australian Securities Exchange last month, which valued the company at $255.4 million, was partly propelled by the platformâs potential to expand its footprint overseas. Airtasker lets users outsource household tasks.
However, the company has been embroiled in a trademark dispute with Airbnb since 2019, with the $US106 billion ($138 billion) behemoth opposing Airtaskerâs application to trademark its name in Europe.
