Linkedin Blog

It gives me immense pleasure to announce another momentous occasion in LinkedIn India’s journey. Earlier this month, we crossed 20 million members in India. It is humbling to play a part in the professional lives of millions of Indians, helping them be more productive and successful in their careers.

Our members have been our motivation since we started operations in India a little over three years ago. Since then, our member base has grown by almost 500% from 3.4 million to 20 million today. To me, however, it is not just about growing our member count but about enabling our members to grow themselves. And members of the “City of LinkedIn India” have done just that.

Singapore LinkedIn members, you’re 1 in a million! I’m thrilled to announce that we now have more than 1 million LinkedIn members in Singapore. Our membership has doubled since we opened our Asia-Pacific headquarters here in 2011, a true testament to the country’s reputation as a hub for talent in the region and the growing interest in professional networking.

At LinkedIn, our members always come first. To celebrate this important milestone, we’re recognizing Singapore’s Power Profiles, members who’ve leveraged LinkedIn to the fullest to be better at what they do. Here are a few Power Profiles we hope will inspire you to make the most of your LinkedIn profile:

This month marks perhaps one of the biggest career moves of the year in the Netherlands – or the world, for that matter.

Today, I’m proud to share that we now have more than 10 million LinkedIn members in Brazil. Our growth in this market has been truly incredible to witness. When we made LinkedIn available in Portuguese in April 2010, we had just over one million members. And when I joined LinkedIn as country manager in November 2011, we had already leapt to six million members.
