Inside Dylan Field’s Big IPO—and His Even Bigger Plans for Figma

wired.com Steven Levy 2025-12-02 00:00:00

When Dylan Field pops up on my Zoom screen, his face is a mixture of giddiness and fatigue. He’s back at work, after a whirlwind trip to New York City where he launched his company Figma on the New York Stock Exchange, bucking the trend of multi-billion-dollar startups staying private. Even before it became clear that this might be the wildest public launch in years, the Figma world—fans of the app, employees (known as Figmates), and investors—had already turned Wall Street into a block party, h

I first encountered Figma in 2013, when Dylan Field demoed an early prototype to me at O’Reilly’s Foo Camp.

That’s probably why Dylan is a near-billionaire and I’m not. However, over the course of th
