If you’re reading this, you have probably heard that ironSource went public on the New York Stock Exchange. In case you don’t quite know who we are or what we do, here’s an overview.
Getting to know ironSource
We’re on our phones a LOT (over 4 hours a day, on average), and most of that time (83%) we’re on apps. Each of those apps is someone’s business, and with 140B apps downloaded in 2020, that’s a lot of businesses. But there’s a fundamental difference between building a great app and building a great app business and that’s where ironSource, founded in 2010, comes in.
Our solutions allow the core constituents of the App Economy to focus on what they do best - creating great apps and user experiences - while we take care of the rest. ironSource helps developers turn their apps into scalable, successful businesses and we empower telecom operators to create a richer experience for their users across the lifecycle of the device.
