Airbnb Hosts Ring Our Opening Bell | Airbnb

Thirteen years ago, two of our co-founders Brian Chesky and Joe Gebbia shared their San Francisco apartment, becoming Airbnb’s first two Hosts. Today, our community has grown to over 4 million Hosts who share their homes, communities, and ways of life with guests from around the world. On this special day, we asked Hosts to help us ring Nasdaq’s Opening Bell. Thanks to every Host for making Airbnb, Airbnb.

ABOUT AIRBNB
Airbnb is a community based on connection and belonging—a community that was born in 2008 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to 4 million hosts who have welcomed over 800 million guest arrivals to about 100,000 cities in almost every country and region across the globe. Hosts on Airbnb are everyday people who share their worlds to provide guests with the feeling of connection and being at home. At Airbnb, we believe that hosts, guests and the communities where we operate are all stakeholders we have a responsibility to serve, and that by serving them alongside our employees and investors, we will build an enduringly successful company.
