Collective Artists Network has acquired Terribly Tiny Tales (TTT), India’s storytelling platform. TTT, founded by Anuj Gosalia in 2013, initially focused on flash fiction on Facebook, offering an alternative to internet memes and GIFs. The platform has grown to include Instagram, YouTube, and other social media, reportedly amassing a community of over five million creators and followers.
“My vision has always been to build scale by creating an ecosystem that supports the best forms of storytelling for creators. The acquisition of Terribly Tiny Tales fits perfectly into our expansion plan to establish Collective Artists Network as the preeminent new media company centred around creators and content. We endeavour to empower the entire creator ecosystem with our network and this acquisition is another step toward achieving that goal,” Vijay Subramaniam, founder and CEO, Collective Artists Network, said.
As per the company, TTT has evolved from a micro-fiction platform to a comprehensive content business, demonstrating reach and impact. Reportedly, the platform engages with 25 million people weekly, positioning itself as an ideal partner for brands looking to share their stories. TTT has collaborated with major brands, producing original content such as web series, short films, and animated shorts.
“Joining forces with Collective Artists Network is a definitive moment for Terribly Tiny Tales. This partnership will enable TTT to leverage Collective’s extensive resources and expertise, allowing us to amplify our reach and impact in the storytelling domain. We are thrilled to be part of this burgeoning force that values creativity, storytelling and innovation as much as we do,” Anuj Gosalia, founder and CEO, Terribly Tiny Tales, said.
