We are excited to announce that we reached a big milestone today: there are now more than 300 million LinkedIn members in the world! More than half of these members come from outside of the U.S., while there are 100 million members in the U.S. While this is an exciting moment, we still have a long way to go to realize our vision of creating economic opportunity for every one of the 3.3 billion people in the global workforce.

tech- and finance-based industries to many other
major sectors including health care, construction
and education management.
Mobile
Industry*
Membership outside the U.S. and Europe
expanded dramatically, with Brazil moving into
the top five and India to the top two.
Location
While 300 million members is an exciting achievement, we
have a long way to go to realize our vision of creating economic
opportunity for every one of the 3.3 billion people in the global
workforce. To read more about how we’re connecting the
world’s professionals, please check out blog.linkedin.com.
Looking Ahead
Just over five years ago,
LinkedIn had just
launched its first mobile
app and mobile
accounted for a small
percentage of traffic.
In 2014, we will hit our mobile moment,
with mobile accounting for more than 50
percent of all global traffic. LinkedIn
currently has five apps: LinkedIn
(for phone and iPad), Contacts, Pulse,
Recruiter Mobile and SlideShare.

MILLION MEMBERS
We now have 300 million LinkedIn members, more than half of whom live
outside of the U.S.That's enough to make LinkedIn the fourth largest country
in the world. In celebration, we took a look back to see how much our
membership has grown and diversified over the past five years. It's a helpful
reminder of not only where we've been, but also where we're headed as we
work to create economic opportunity for every professional in the world.
