This week we are celebrating FundApps being all grown up on the other side of the pond, as we've officially moved out of coworking spaces and into our very own office in New York!

This week we are celebrating FundApps being all grown up on the other side of the pond, as we officially have our very own office space in New York! This milestone comes after several years of shared office spaces and the growth of our North American team from just 1 in 2016 to 15 today (and counting!) 

So, how did we get here?

It was back in 2016 that our journey in the Big Apple began, as our increasing client base in North America led Dave Polonsky (now Head of North America) on a mission from London to NYC to continue spreading compliance nirvana 🧘‍♀️. While at the time North America made up just a small fraction of our client base, it now makes up over 50% of our total client base. 

Now let’s take a trip down memory lane to see how far we’ve come...
