Acast

Today we’re celebrating our 10th anniversary, alongside our brilliant podcasters, advertisers and partners 🎂 It's incredible to see how podcasting has evolved since our founding in 2014 when we introduced dynamic ad insertion to the industry. What started as a niche medium has grown into a global phenomenon, with over 424 million listeners worldwide. In that time we've partnered with creators of all shapes and sizes, introduced advertisers to podcasting, and built a talented team of Acasters around the world. We’ve also delivered 23.7 billion podcast listens and served 37.2 billion ads 🤯 This celebration is about the entire podcasting community. To the creators, listeners, advertisers, and partners who have helped build this alongside us: thank you. As we look ahead, we believe podcasting's potential is limitless. Here's to the next decade of growth, connection, and unforgettable stories.
