SoundCloud opens big new NYC office
By Aly Barchi | Published on Wednesday 4 June 2014
The super-hot SoundCloud scoop today is that, in line with what it said it was going to do last year, the audio sharing platform has moved some of its staff into a big office on NYC’s fanciest avenue, Fifth (Avenue). Which I suppose accounts for part of the $60 million SC secured in funding back in January.
The NYC team, at first only a two-man unit, has now grown to 20 men (and women), a workforce that’s due to double by this time next year, says SoundCloud CBO Jeff Toig (that’s Chief Business Officer, if you wondered).
Speaking to the New York Daily News on the big move, Toig, who joined the company last autumn, said the expansion would put SoundCloud at the heart of “one of the biggest centres of creativity in the world”, adding: “We are making a major investment in New York. New York will be the hub for SoundCloud in the US”.
