Since then, Khusid said the company grew its user base by 500%, from 5 million to 30 million users, and also its paying customer base by 550%. Among its Fortune 100 clients, 20 have more than $1 million in annual recurring revenue contract value, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Iconiq Growth is back for the Series C round and is joined by Accel, Atlassian, Dragoneer, GIC, Salesforce Ventures and TCV. Individual investors involved include Airtable co-founders Howie Liu and Andrew Ofstad, Snowflake CEO Frank Slootman and DocuSign CEO Dan Springer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince our initial investment, Miro has scaled with tremendous momentum, strong market leadership, and incredible product velocity,\u201d said Matthew Jacobson, general partner at Iconiq Growth and Miro board member, in a written statement. \u201cWe believe Miro sits at a powerful intersection between asynchronous and synchronous work that captures and ignites creative processes everywhere. In our view, Miro\u2019s culture of customer centricity makes it well-positioned to address a myriad of use cases across hybrid work for more than a billion knowledge workers globally. We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Andrey and the entire Miro team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prior to the raise, Miro was already profitable and growing three times year over year before the global pandemic. However, with statistics showing that <a href=\"https:\/\/blue-sea-697d.quartiers047.workers.dev:443\/https\/www.gartner.com\/en\/newsroom\/press-releases\/2021-06-22-gartner-forecasts-51-percent-of-global-knowledge-workers-will-be-remote-by-2021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">53% of the U.S. workforce is expected to be remote<\/a> by the end of this year, and with what Khusid expected to happen in 2022 actually happening in 2020, it created awareness around the problem of connectivity and collaboration in this new way of work.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, with the venture capital market \u201cfavorable\u201d right now, and given Miro\u2019s vision of building a generational company, it made sense to go after additional funding to have the resources in place to build a strong brand for customers, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Khusid plans to invest the new capital into product and technology development, getting its tools in front of more enterprise clients and expanding its global footprint. He is also looking at M&amp;A opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past 12 months, the company doubled its headcount to just over 1,200 employees in 11 hubs around the world, including new ones opened in Berlin, Munich, London, Sydney and Tokyo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to make sure all of our people are in place in all functions from customer support to product engineering,\u201d Khusid said. \u201cWe\u2019ve tried to serve the demand and make sure every experience is good. We aim to increase the pace of innovation, and that will be a big area of investment. It\u2019s a big challenge to scale at that pace, especially being fully remote.
