Auth0 to double UK staffing

Identity platform Auth0 is to double the size of its UK team by the end of 2019 after seeing rapid growth in its European markets.

The company has announced 165 percent year-on-year growth in the EMEA market, which now accounts for almost 30 per cent of Auth0’s global revenue.

This has partially been fuelled by the firm signing up 55 new enterprise customers, bringing the total to 220, and a rapidly-growing partner network across Europe and the Middle East.

The company’s growth across EMEA is in addition to a 2,000 percent increase in revenue among existing customers in the second quarter of 2019 compared with the same period last year.

Auth0’s general manager of EMEA Steven Rees-Pullman said: “EMEA is hyper-aware of cybersecurity risks, and it’s vitally important we enable people to interact simply and securely with apps and services.”
