Foursquare business development director released Twitter news

According to foreign media reports, mobile location social network service provider Foursquare business development director Tristan Walker (Tristan Walker) recently released a Twitter message that Foursquare "check-in" (check-in) has exceeded 100 million times in Monday.

Foursquare's market growth is surprising. The company's latest check-in data show that Foursquare still keeps growing at a high speed. The number of users on the site has grown rapidly, with a total of 100,000 new users per week. Foursquare users have just broken through 2 million.

Foursquare announced at the end of June this year that the company's second round of funding had been completed. This round of financing by the venture capital company Anderson Hollowitz Fund (Andreessen Horowitz) led by Foursquare won 20 million dollar venture capital. The Foursquare was valued at $95 million trillion before the company was injected with the funds. In addition to the Anderson Hollowitz Fund, the company's existing investors union Square Ventures and O ' Reilly Alphatech Ventures also participated in the round of financing. Foursquare's 1.35 million dollars in the first round of financing came from the Union Square Ventures, O ' Reilly Alphatech Ventures and some famous angel investors.

At present, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Zagat, Bravo TV, Starbucks and other more than 10,000 mainstream brands have become Foursquare business partners. There are few companies, such as Foursquare, that can boost users ' purchases of business products, so Foursquare undoubtedly has huge market growth potential.

Founded in 2009 and headquartered in New York, Foursquare is primarily providing location-based social networking services to its users, while integrating social gaming capabilities. With this service, users can always notify their friends of their current location and activities. By the end of 2009, Foursquare registered users of 170,000 people. This April, Foursquare announced a 1 millionth-place registered user.
