Kelly:
March 15th was really the day when the world changed for Zoom. And there just started this exponential growth
In December of 2019, we had on average, 10 million daily meeting participants. By April we had 300 million daily meeting participants. And we added thousands of servers per day to keep up.
Almost a third of our company, or a little over a thousand employees, have been hired during the last six months. Which means, they have never set foot in a Zoom office. And yet, through the power of Zoom, we’ve been able to keep growing.
We Zoom with several people from Wells Fargo every day.
It’s gratifying to know that at Wells Fargo we have an infrastructure that’s ready to power innovative companies like Zoom. We can take a founder’s idea from inception to IPO and beyond.
Wells Fargo has been Zoom’s commercial bank since inception in 2011. We’re one of their asset managers, and we played an important role in the company’s IPO.
Back to Kelly:
Wells Fargo is definitely more than just a bank. They were one of our earliest financial services customers.
What we’re looking for in a banking partner is somebody like Wells Fargo that has a broad range of services and is able to meet our needs as we’ve continued to scale.
It has enabled us to change how communication happens.
