Canva는 2013년 Perkins, 현재 남편인 Cliff Obrecht와 Cameron Adams가 호주 시드니에서 시작했지만 위치 때문에 투자자들의 회의론에 부딪혔습니다.

Canva was launched in 2013 by Perkins, now-husband Cliff Obrecht and Cameron Adams in Sydney, Australia, but was met by investor skepticism due to its location.

부부는 자선 활동을 위해 지분의 80% 이상을 Canva 재단에 이전하기로 약속했습니다.

Like Obrecht, she owns an estimated 18% stake.

The couple has pledged to transfer more than 80% of their stake to the Canva Foundation for charitable causes.

Defying the doubts, Canva has attracted 60 million monthly users to its freemium software, with 500,000 teams from companies like Intel and Zoom paying for it.

 

 

Canva의 소프트웨어를 사용하면 메뉴, 이력서, Instagram 그래픽을 위한 매력적인 시각적 요소를 만들 수 있습니다.

Canva's software enables the creation of attractive visuals for menus, resumes and Instagram graphics.

 

 

퍼킨스는 엔젤 투자자인 빌 타이(Bill Tai)를 포함한 카이트보드 애호가 벤처 투자가 그룹으로부터 투자를 받기 위해 카이트서핑을 배웠습니다.
