The story
Origins and early internet services
In 1999, brothers Jakub and Robert Dwernicki founded the company Spider, one of the first web hosting providers in Poland.
In 2005, the founders established Vercom, a company conducting hosting and telecommunications activities. It initially served as an in-house software house, and later became the foundation of the group's CPaaS segment.
In 2015, following funding of approximately PLN 30 million from the 3TS Capital Partners fund, the company began acquiring other companies in the market. The capital was directed to H88 S.A., a subsidiary acting as a sub-holding for the hosting segment.
Between 2015 and 2017, the group invested over PLN 60 million and acquired the brands Domeny.pl, Linuxpl.com, Futurehost.pl, Hekko.pl, SuperHost.pl, Biznes-Host.pl, blink.pl, and Active24.pl. These brands were integrated into H88 on the basis of the Poznań-based company Ogicom. During this period, revenue in the hosting segment grew from PLN 8 million in 2015 to PLN 74 million in the 2016/2017 fiscal year.
Stock exchange listing and brand consolidation (2017–2023)
In December 2017, the company debuted on the Warsaw Stock Exchange under the name R22 S.A.
In the same month, R22 acquired the hosting brand Kei.pl for PLN 22 million, taking over approximately 14,000 customers and 18,000 managed domains.
In 2018–2019, the group acquired six Romanian hosting companies (including TLH, HostVision, and Rohost). According to company data from that period, it became one of the largest hosting operators in Romania.
In 2019, R22 bought out a 28.5% stake in H88 from 3TS Capital Partners for €6.8 million, gaining full control of the hosting segment. That same year, the company paid its first dividend.

In 2020, the hosting brand cyber_Folks was established to integrate numerous smaller brands in the group's portfolio in Poland and other Central and Eastern European countries (including Romania). At the time of its creation, the brand served over 100,000 customers.
