There’s even more proof this week that designers are the new rock stars of the tech world. Adobe announced on Thursday that it has acquired Behance, a community site for designers’ portfolios. Adobe will integrate Behance into its own Creative Cloud community and tool-sharing site that it launched for designers and developers earlier this year.
The companies didn’t release terms of the deal. Behance, founded in 2006 and now with 32 employees, has 1 million users and hosts 3 million projects. Earlier this year Behance raised a $6.5 million round from Union Square Ventures, along with angels Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, Path founder Dave Morin, designer Yves Behar, 500 Startups’ Dave McClure, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, StumbleUpon founder Garrett Camp, Chris Dixon, and Dave Tisch.
