Smokio is a consumer electronics company headquartered in Paris, France, which designs, develops, and sells electronic cigarettes and mobile applications. Its main products are the Smokio connected electronic cigarette and associated app. Smokio was founded in August 2013 by Steve Anavi (ex-Director of International Operations - Groupon Goods), Alexandre Prot (co-founder of Wimdu), and Emrah Yuceer to develop and sell connected electronic cigarettes. On its release in February 2014, Smokio was the world's first electronic cigarette to utilise Bluetooth Low Energy to allow the user to collect usage statistics via a smartphone app[2]. The company was funded by the founders, Frederic Potter (Founder of Withings and CEO of Netatmo) and Alven Capital.
