VSCO Passes 30 Million Active Users
The Oakland, California-based photo software company VSCO is on a roll. After raising a whopping $70 million in venture funding — $40M in 2014 and $30M in 2015 — the company just announced that it has passed the 30 million user mark.
It took 2 years for VSCO to get from 0 to 20 million users, and about 9 months to go from 20 million to 30 million. Membership has grown 802% year over year and images published has grown 952%, reports The Verge. VSCO is saying that 80% of its userbase is outside the US, with China being one market that’s seeing “explosive growth.”
VSCO also announced the appointment of Chief Operating Officer Bryan Mason, who was previously a business operations manager at Adobe overseeing the launch of Creative Cloud. Prior to that, Mason was the co-founder of Typekit, which was acquired by Adobe in 2011.
