How do you see the website builder sector changing in the next five to 10 years? We actually serve many different industries, and as global economies reopen, we’ll help connect the online and offline. We don't just serve one specific segment that is all about online. We believe this is possible due to the diversified nature of our business. It is his belief that at this rate of growth, in the next five to seven years, 50 percent of anything new built on the internet will be done on Wix. Our long-term ambition, as stated by our CEO Avishai Abrahami, is to become the main engine of the internet, democratising access and providing a place where the majority of people will build their web presence. What are some of Wix's broader goals for the future? For instance, maintaining an open-door policy for all employees across the company, and a culture where everyone can pitch ideas and contribute in a meaningful way.įor example, to help businesses succeed beyond their traditional site, we launched Spaces by Wix, the first in a series of native mobile applications for customers to engage and transact with businesses built on Wix from their phones. What are some of the challenges the company has had to overcome in recent years, and how does the team tackle them?Īs we scaled from a small startup to a global company, it has been extremely important for us to maintain the collaborative culture of a startup.

Some examples from this year include expanding our mobile app strategy, to offer business owners the ability to have their own native app experience to engage and transact with their customers, and enhancing our performance so site visitors' experience is as responsive and fluid as possible.Īnd to support making the web more inclusive for everyone, we recently launched the Accessibility Wizard-the first-of-its-kind tool, providing users with a step-by-step interactive solution instructing them on how to improve and maintain their sites’ accessibility.

We are constantly working to improve our products for both our users and their site visitors. We also acquired Rise.ai to bring users native gift cards, loyalty and customer re-engagement solutions within Wix for online commerce users, which was also one of the most requested features from Wix merchants.
