How it all started
In 2009, while studying at a university in Vilnius, Lithuania, Tomas Banišauskas set out to crack a question: what drives viral success on the internet?
He learned by doing — building websites, studying what worked online and refining content that captured people’s attention. That hands-on approach led to boredpanda.com, which reached one million organic pageviews within its first ten months.
At the core of that early success was a combination that still defines our DNA: creativity, technology, and a sharp business mindset. Today, that same formula helps us move fast, adapt to algorithm shifts early, create new business formats and scale what works.
What started as a curiosity-driven side project has grown into Bored Panda Group, a global media and entertainment company spanning editorial, video production, and animation & IPs, reaching millions worldwide.
