Bubble, which is designed to help people turn their ideas into startups and which was cofounded by Emmanuel Straschnov (MBA 2012), received $100 million in Series A funding, according to TechCrunch. The company’s click-and-drag interface allows users without any coding skills to build modern web applications, connecting data sources and other software together in one place. Its tools are designed to be as powerful as they are straightforward. In fact, the company’s proposition is that many large, venture-backed companies could’ve been built on Bubble’s platform—without the vast expense of a large team of coders.

The most recent funding, led by Ryan Hinkle of Insight Partners, amounts to huge news for Bubble, which has largely bootstrapped its way up to this point. The company has been experiencing significant growth in the last year as many new users discovered Bubble’s offerings during the pandemic. The company’s revenues tripled and headcount doubled in the last year. With this latest round of funding, the company is focused on expanding its functionality, enhancing educational instruction to make its offerings even easier to grasp, and partnering with universities to introduce more students to the platform.
