About Buz­zFeed

Buz­zFeed is a new kind of media com­pa­ny for the social world. Our tech­nol­o­gy pow­ers the viral dis­tri­b­u­tion of con­tent, detects what is trend­ing on the web, and con­nects peo­ple in real­time with the hottest con­tent of the moment. Our site is a rapid­ly grow­ing hub for viral media that reach­es over 20 mil­lion month­ly unique vis­i­tors and our viral media net­work reach­es an addi­tion­al 300M.

Buz­zFeed is at the fore­front of a major shift in the adver­tis­ing indus­try away from tra­di­tion­al ban­ner ads towards “social adver­tis­ing” that engages con­sumers, inspires shar­ing, and pro­duces viral lift, or “earned media.”

Buz­zFeed’s indus­try lead­ing tech­nol­o­gy and unique social dis­tri­b­u­tion engine is used by top brands such as GE, Kraft, and Coca Cola to go beyond ban­ners, tur­bo charg­ing their social adver­tis­ing and brand­ed con­tent initiatives.

Jon­ah Peretti, founder & CEO of Buz­zFeed, pre­vi­ous­ly cofound­ed the Huff­in­g­ton Post and is a grad­u­ate of the MIT Media Lab.
