By now, you may have heard the news that Wall Street just got fit. Fitbit has officially been listed as FIT on the New York Stock Exchange.
It’s a huge milestone for us. One that we wouldn’t be celebrating without you.
Since the start of the company over eight years ago, our mission has been to help people lead healthier, more active lives. Our journey to this moment has been so similar to the journey you take in fitness. It doesn’t matter if you’re running your first 5K or building a company—it all starts with a goal.
Along that journey, you celebrate your milestones, even when there’s still a long way to go. You look for people to support you on the way and end up with an entire community of people who believe in you. And whether it takes weeks or months or years, if you stay focused, all the little things add up to something big.
So, thank you for being our community. Thank you for supporting our dream and for helping us reach this goal. We are more committed than ever to creating the products, services and features you need to reach yours.
You’ve been with us every step of the way, and we can’t wait to see what’s next.
—James Park, CEO & Co-Founder of Fitbit
