Influur, the leading professional networking platform for influencers founded by visionary Latinas – Alessandra Angelini, Valeria Angelini, Paula Coleman, and Fefi Oliveira – announced the successful closing of its $10 million Series A, led by Point72 Ventures and HTwenty Capital. The funding highlights Influur’s hypergrowth, including an 83% increase in its verified influencer base and a 200% rise in brand spend across the US and Latin America.
Influur has built the most comprehensive platform for the creator economy that goes beyond traditional influencer marketing. It is a vibrant global community that empowers influencers to monetize their talent, expand their reach, and grow their businesses. It streamlines connections between brands and influencers, allowing them to build meaningful relationships and impactful campaigns together. And unlike platforms that rely on scraping data, Influur ensures all its influencers are verified and registered, making it a trusted platform for both the creator community and brands.
“Influur is a connected community where influencers ‘find home’—gaining access to brand opportunities and resources to thrive,” said Alessandra Angelini, co-founder and CEO of Influur. “This funding will help us enhance our platform, enabling influencers to grow their businesses and connect with brands more effectively.”
