DigitalOcean becomes a public company

What's this blog post about?

DigitalOcean has officially listed on the New York Stock Exchange as a publicly traded company (NYSE: DOCN). The IPO is an important milestone for the company, founded 10 years ago with the belief that software developers, startups, and small and medium-sized businesses were being poorly served by the emerging cloud computing market. Today, more than 570,000 customers trust DigitalOcean with their projects or business. The company's focus will not change as it remains committed to empowering growth and success for its customers. As part of its IPO, DigitalOcean is renaming its Hub for Good program to honor Hollie Haggans, a beloved team member who helped build the program and was a fierce champion of the community of developers and startups. The company will continue to grow and invest in its community while expanding its global footprint to help more developers and entrepreneurs around the world realize the benefits of cloud computing.
