Kursiv celebrating 15 years of business
Kursiv, a swiss stock photography agency, has announced that it is celebrating its 15th anniversary. The business was launched in 1994 by Karsten Risseeuw as a software distributor with specialized products for designers. In 1997, Kursiv started selling royalty-free image CDs – at that time a new and promising concept, in times where internet was slow and rights managed imagery expensive. By 1998 a dozen collections were represented. “We have sent out over 100 different image catalogs to our customers in those years”, Karsten Risseeuw recalls.
Today, Kursiv has over 11 million images on its website, for search and immediate download. “From the beginning we wanted to offer a maximum of quality and service for different needs”, says Risseeuw. “Customers come with different requests, and have projects with different budgets. This is why we strategically decided to include highend photos as well as lowcost solutions, commercial as well as editorial accounts, and offer consulting services for image databases.”
