General Manager of Skype Estonia (their largest and original office) speaking at Stanford. Q&A happening now…
Over 400 million users.
If Skype were a country, it would be the third largest telecom market.
90% are using non-English versions of the client.
Over 25% of calls are with video!
30% is business use.
Estonia has as many programmers as Google hires in a year.
First version was built by 4 people in 4 months and 2 months later, we had 1 million users.
.5B revenue and profitable in 08 and 07.
P.S. Sten hosted me on my first visit to Skype, and I can finally return the favor by hosting him here.
