Founded in 2004 by Jimmy Wales and Angela Beesley, Wikia was inspired by the model of Wikipedia - the free, open-source encyclopedia to which anyone could contribute content. Wikia focuses, however, on being the definitive resource on many topics that do not fit into the traditional encyclopedia model, building entire communities around pop culture content.
It is that very passion that has driven Wikia's tremendous growth over the past six years. We've gone from being a few solitary contributors and readers to a handful of communities to over 2 million registered users on 150,000 wiki communities. We are growing rapidly, currently close to 100 employees and we are profitable.
