Artboard Studio receives seed investment

ARTBOARD STUDIO, an application where designers can produce professional graphic and animation content, with marketing and brand design teams working together, received seed investment from 212, Turkey’s first active fund, through a USD 7m valuation. Founded by Mucahit Gayiran and Hooman Askari, Artboard Studio is a hybrid platform that includes the features, ready-to-use materials and online collaboration systems that designers need while producing marketing-oriented visual and animation content. Due to a browser-based working system, you can manage all your projects from any computer without the need for powerful configurations or downloading files. It can also solve the most time-consuming approval processes and content needs of designers from a single place. In April 2018, the first demo version was released on Product Hunt and started to receive the first early-stage users. Afterward, the company became a tool used actively by many designers and advertising agencies. In 2019, to accelerate growth and improve the features of the application, as well as become a competitor and complementary tool to professional design tools such as Adobe, Figma and Sketch, the company was selected for the Techstars Toronto program, a global incubation center, completing the program in 2020, quadrupling its growth. Now, it aims to grow exponentially with the investment of 212.
