Dropbox Inc. - statistics & facts
Dropbox’s founding mission was simple yet revolutionary – to allow users to sync desktop files to the cloud via a client that integrates with a device’s native file explorer. This remains the San Francisco-based firm’s core proposition, with users able to access their files from any compatible device and can seamlessly share files with other users.

As with many tech firms, this has been enabled in part by the acquisitions of emerging companies.
