Success story

DepositPhotos, which has almost 50 million free images, videos and vector graphics for sale, was founded in Kyiv in 2009 and now has 10 million visitors to its website per month. Headquartered in New York, the company serves customers from 192 countries with 24-hour support in 20 languages.

DepositPhotos was founded in 2009, by Ukrainian businessman Dmitry Sergeyev. The fact is that at the time of the creation of DepositPhotos Dmitry Sergeyev already had a reasonably impressive start-up capital and remarkable experience in developing and running a business.

Dmitry Sergeyev founded the famous file hosting service Depositfiles in 2005. In 2008, when it became clear that the old file hosting services were disappearing, this project was sold for several million dollars. With this money, Dmitry Sergeyev launched his next development, Depositphotos. According to him, the first time he invested in DepositPhotos about $1 million from his pocket.

In 2011, the growth of the company was noticed by TMT Investments, which invested $3 million in DepositPhotos in exchange for a 27% stake in the company. At that time, the entire business was valued at $10 million. Four years later, the company has grown ten times more. Besides, in December 2015, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development invested $ 4 million into the company.
