VK - statistics & facts
Most famous for its social network, VKontakte, the VK company has grown into a large digital ecosystem. Its success is evidenced by impressive financial growth, with revenue soaring to nearly 133 billion Russian rubles in 2023. This development is particularly noteworthy considering the net losses from 2020 to 2022, with a turnaround in 2023 resulting in a net profit of approximately 34 billion Russian rubles. VK, founded by Pavel Durov, CEO of Telegram, in 2006, is one of Russia's most valuable internet companies. In 2014, it became part of the Mail.ru Group, which was renamed VK in 2021.
