Those moves come about seven months after the New York-based fitness company acquired Inner Peaks. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Husband-and-wife team Doug Cosby and Page Lee launched Inner Peaks in 1998. They are staying on with Climbing Collective as part of the executive team.
Climbing Collective looks to create synergies between existing operators’ experience and its own business insights and ability to launch climbing gyms on an expedited schedule.
