The acquisition will enable the platform led by Joseph Phua (Chairman and co-founder), Alex Lien (CEO), Jing Shen N. (CTO), Kenta Masuda (CFO), and a team of 800+ strong, to further expand its global reach. 🪴 After leading their Series A in 2015, our partners Akio T. and Joseph Huang helped build out 17LIVE operational and back office functions to allow the founders to focus on their product as well as driving 17LIVE expansion from Taiwan into the Japanese market. One year later, 17LIVE blossomed into 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍1 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞-𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐢𝐧 𝐉𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐧. “Eight years ago, we saw the birth of a new industry when the original founders of 17LIVE in Taiwan invented a smartphone native live-streaming that connected individual creators to their fans. We are very fortunate to join the journey of a Taiwanese startup expanding to Japan to become a true global business and an icon for the new industry.“ noted Akio Tanaka. Headline Asia subsequently led 17LIVE series B in 2017 and raised close to $20m for the company. 💹 With 88K paying users and 87K contracted live-streamer, 17LIVE became experts at monetizing their high-quality traffic and user base, scaling their revenue more than 100X over the past 7 years and making it the top pure-play live-streaming platform (#1 ARPU) in Japan and Taiwan combined. As a business with a core focus on technology, 17LIVE offers highly differentiated and scalable product lines including live-streaming, V-Liver and live commerce.  Vertex Technology Acquisition Corporation (VTAC) has voted (95.2% of shareholders) for a merger with the Asia live-streaming powerhouse. The completion of the acquisition on December 8th sees VTAC transition into the 17LIVE Group, and trading will begin at 9AM the same day. 🤝 One of the big growth initiatives of 17LIVE is V-Liver technology as it is expected to grow 4x in Japan between 2023 and 2027. Currently, 17LIVE has over 2000 V-Livers and the community of live streamers is growing exponentially, to become the largest in Japan.
