Save the Sound

Olive was founded in 2005 by Dr. Oliver Bergmann and Robert Altmann, who are not only passionate about technology but also about music. Dr. Bergmann was immediately excited by how digital technology has made it so much more convenient for people to purchase, store, and manage their music. Thanks to products like the iPod™, people of all ages are able to listen to digital music on the go. The new devices promised thousands of songs in your pocket, delivering more access to music than ever before. And a better way to organize and search for the music people wanted to hear.
