Snapchat maker expands in London ahead of public offering
The growing popularity of Snap's photo-sharing app makes it one of the most anticipated technology IPOs in years.
London
THE maker of Snapchat is taking some of its biggest steps to expand outside the US.
Snap Inc recently posted nearly 20 job openings in London in areas including advertising, software engineering and legal, according to its website. The vacancies come after the company in February signed a 10-year lease on a four-story, 1,168-square-metre property in the UK capital. In October, Snap also opened an office in Paris for staff working on advertising and partnerships with French-language media organisations.
