Exciting news!

Congrats Udemy team & Gregg, that's an amazing achievement and a great valuation.

I can't wait to see the accelerated growth in Udemy's team!

Any pointers as to where that money will be spent? Engineering? UFB? Marketing? New revenue avenues?

Congrats Team Udemy!

Looking forward to more innovations in the learning tools available to students with this money.

Congratulations, Team Udemy! That is an amazing valuation, and I really loved the part of the article where they bring up that Udemy has already paid out over $350 million to its instructors since launch.

Keep up the great work!

Hi @StephaneMaarek
— We plan on further investing in markets around the world, deepening our learning offerings for both consumers and the enterprise, and expanding our San Francisco headquarters as well as growing offices in Denver, Colorado; Dublin, Ireland; Gurgaon, India; São Paulo, Brazil; and Ankara, Turkey.

That is excellent news, both the investment, the partnership, and the valuation.

Excited to see what this and the general Udemy evolvement leads to.

Great news. We're looking forward to produce more courses.
