Who Owns Discord? Platform's Ownership Explored

Who owns the social messaging platform Discord? Techopedia looks at the company's background, ownership, and founders, who still run the company.

The article from Techopedia explores the ownership of Discord, a popular communication platform initially launched in 2015 by founders Jason Citron and Stanislav Vishnevskiy. Discord has since grown significantly, attracting millions of users and becoming a key player in online communication, especially among gamers. In 2021, Discord was valued at $15 billion after a funding round, but it has not gone public through an IPO. Instead, it has attracted investments from various venture capital firms. Notably, in March 2021, Microsoft was in talks to acquire Discord for over $10 billion, but the deal fell through. Discord remains a private company, with its ownership spread among its founders, employees, and investors like Tencent, which holds a significant but non-controlling stake. The platform continues to operate independently, focusing on enhancing user experience and expanding its features.
