Snapshot of a global fintech
This post is part of Sharesight’s 10 year anniversary series. Scroll down to the Further Reading section for every post in the series or read Sharesight’s 10 year fintech journey post to get started.
Since Sharesight was born 10 years ago, we’ve become quite an international company! Between the team, we work from 3 different countries, speak 11 languages (not including the dozens of languages our developers use to build Sharesight), and come from 8 different countries. We might actually hold more passports than Jason Bourne!
Our clients are from all but one continent
And our clients? We are so proud to have a userbase covering 61 different countries and spanning all continents with the exception of Antarctica. Funny enough, our very first clients outside of Australia and New Zealand signed up on the exact same day in June 2015 and they were from France and Singapore. That month, we also welcomed our first clients from 10 other countries. I’m sure it’s no coincidence because that’s when we began supporting Global Markets. Anguilla was the 61st country added to the list in February this year.
