Why Medium is interesting

Ev Williams's publishing bet after Twitter — a16z led the $57M Series B (2015) alongside GV and Greylock; Spark led the $50M Series C (2016). Still a reference point for media-meets-SaaS business models.

Key facts

Series B (Sep 2015): $57M led by a16z; GV and Greylock participated (Medium blog, TechCrunch)
Series C (Apr 2016): $50M led by Spark Capital (TechCrunch)
