Big news 🚨‼️ @Kickstarter x @Google
I’m excited to share that @Kickstarter is partnering with @Google to launch the Next Wave Fund!
This initiative is designed to give the next generation of entrepreneurs the support they need to launch and grow by giving 10k to each entrepreneur/creator for their next big idea.
Today marks 17 years of @Kickstarter 💚✨
It’s been an honor to be at the helm of one of the most influential and impactful companies ever.
Thank you to our founders, our team (past and present), and our community for all contributing to something so special.
This week I was honored by the London Stock Exchange for all the impact @Kickstarter is driving in the culture, the UK, and beyond 🙏🏾
This week I took the main stage at @Semafor World Economy Summit with the CEO of @Chime, @ChrisRBritt to discuss the pulse of consumer markets today.
Both companies are showing signs that consumer markets are on the upswing with @Kickstarter having another record breaking year and @Chime seeing 50+ card transactions from the average customer per month.

Kickstarter CEO @Everette Taylor on the creator economy live from @Semafor World Economy:
"I'm not thinking about @Kickstarter as a crowdfunding company anymore. I'm thinking of it as a creator company."
After a record year (and up ~52% YTD?!), they're doubling down on creators by building end-to-end tools from pre-launch to post-campaign.
All this while throwing shade at IG:
"If you build 50,000 followers on @instagram, maybe 50 people, 100 people see your posts, no offense… If you do that on @Kickstarter and you launch something new, all 50,000 of those people get notified."
