AMSTERDAM: Dutch startup WeTransfer has raised $25 million in new funding to expand into the “US, Europe, and beyond.” It announced the news in a press release on Tuesday.
The Amsterdam-based company operates a cloud-based service that allows users to send large files just as securely and easily as email attachments.
Today, WeTransfer has 25 million active users who send 70 million files every month. Founder and CEO Bas Beerens said in a statement that the company has been profitable since 2013 and employs around 30 members of staff. It was set up in 2009, entirely on its own, and this is the first ever funding round for WeTransfer.
