About POSH
Humans are fundamentally social creatures, but the largest “social” companies today have evolved into purely digital content providers, exacerbating the isolation, loneliness, and mental health challenges plaguing our society.
Posh enables anyone to build an IRL community around shared interests and backgrounds, bringing people together in-person to cultivate real-world human connection. Our team of college dropouts, event fanatics, and software veterans are building the events ecosystem of the future, empowering anyone to find or create incredible social experiences.
In just four years, POSH has grown to a team of 50+, expanded our user base to 3M+, secured $31M+ in venture funding, and facilitated over $100M in transactions.
