pixiv has long been actively involved in promoting creators overseas and helping Japanese creators expand internationally. pixiv highly values its ongoing partnership with "SSS by applibot", and is proud to support their members at this all-new U.S. exhibition as the official corporate sponsor.

pixiv's support for creators overseas
As of April 2023, pixiv boasted more than 90 million registered users, of whom 58% are located outside Japan. Of pixiv's non-Japanese members, about 7.2 million are located in the USA, with more than 1.1 million unique users from the USA using the pixiv site each month. American creators have posted a cumulative total of more than 3.7 million pages of works to the site.

In December of last year, pixiv partnered with the U.S.-based publisher Clover Press to release English editions of "Artists in Taiwan" and "Artists in Korea", which highlight the work of creators in those countries. This crowdfunded project garnered a total of $88,524 in financing on Kickstarter, becoming a hugely successful project for introducing works by Asian creators into the Western market.

Then, in March of this year, pixiv partnered with the publisher PIE International to release an artbook entitled "Artists in the Americas", showcasing work by 62 creators from North and South America to proactively support creators from the Americas and help them deepen their relationships with their fans.

Going forward, pixiv will continue to support creative activities and produce opportunities to help creators expand their fanbase internationally.
