With 150 mln Indian users, Glance eyes U.S., LatAm

InMobi-backed consumer internet company Glance is gearing up for an international expansion, spanning the U.S. and Latin America over the next few quarters. The company—which owns lock screen content platform Glance and video app Roposo—says in a recent interaction with Fortune India that it was also exploring opportunities in the Middle East and Africa, and other markets with a strong adoption of Android phones.

Outside of India, Glance is already present in Southeast Asia, where it has an estimated 25 million active users. A majority of this is in Indonesia, where it serves content in Bahasa, besides English, followed by countries such as Thailand, Philippines, and Malaysia. With a view to foster deeper engagement from users in these markets, Glance has recently introduced content in Thai. It is also looking to launch localized lock screen content in other Southeast and South Asian languages, such as Filipino, Malay, Vietnamese, Nepali, Sinhala.
