Contentful, a pioneer and global leader in headless content management systems (CMS), is now leading the industry with its next-generation content platform, which enables builders — developers, designers and content creators — to create and deliver digital experiences for any channel or device. Contentful’s Denver expansion is part of a strategic growth plan fueled by an $80 million Series E investment, led by Sapphire Ventures in June.

“Brands are increasingly investing in digital channels and experiences, and Covid-19 has accelerated that trend. Contentful helps brands build digital experiences for their customers faster than they could with a traditional CMS,” said Laurence Trifon, Contenful’s SVP of Customer Experience. He is based in Denver and will be the executive sponsor of the office. “We’re accelerating our own expansion to support this demand for digital-first capabilities.”
