Together with his business partner, Chaleo Yoovidhya, Mateschitz founded Red Bull GmbH in Austria in 1984 and launched the drink in Europe in 1987. As the popularity of the drink grew, Mateschitz and his team faced several challenges, including competition from other energy drinks, government regulation, and some consumer resistance to drink ingredients.
