Last year, Harvard Business School released a case study chronicling our journey building Applecart from a bootstrapped University of Pennsylvania dorm room start up into an almost 300-person high growth, Series C tech company serving the C-suites of the largest organizations in the world. I was glad to join Prof. Jeffrey F Rayport's "Scaling Technology Ventures" class for the second year, as they studied and debated our case. This year it was fun to "co-teach" the class alongside our early investor Jennifer Scott Fonstad, who has been right by our side for almost the whole journey from seed stage to today. It's a surreal experience to relive the entire 13-year rollercoaster through the eyes of 140 Harvard MBAs. Hard to be anything but proud of what the hard work of many generations of Applecarters has brought to life and excited about all that's ahead of us.
Applecart gathered for a game of friendly competition at our second annual shuffleboard competition at Electric Shuffle in NYC. All team members worked strategically to move their pucks down the table, but Henry Sherwood Caballero, Claire (Kuzara) Beirise, and Sydney Thompson took the top three spots! At Applecart, we believe that culture is something we create together — on and off the clock. We are grateful to be recognized as one of the top places to work in NYC, DC, and across the U.S. Explore careers with us: www.applecart.co/careers

Blackstone’s tech growth fund recently invested $100 million in Applecart. This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our first major outside investor, Endeavor, and first outside board member, Ariel Emanuel, beginning almost a decade ago. Thank you, Ari, for betting on us long before anyone knew what Applecart was. There’s no one you’d rather have on your team than Ari and we’re excited that he will continue to serve on our board in this next phase of rapid growth with Blackstone. We’re excited to continue working with Ari and now with Blackstone to build a once in a generation company that helps C-suites navigate their most important priorities.

Big news! We’re excited to share that Blackstone Growth, the tech growth arm of the world’s largest alternative asset manager, has made a $100 million minority investment in Applecart! With this investment, we’re excited to be able to bring Blackstone’s significant resources to bear on behalf of our clients and their most important business problems. The funds we’ve raised will principally support building new technology that we expect will blow the minds of our clients and solve for some of their top priorities, as well as giving us the resources to get our platform into the hands of even more people who can benefit from it. Over the last nearly 15 years, we’re proud that Applecart has grown into the leading marketing technology company that C-suites trust to reach important business stakeholders. It means the world to us that we hear from so many of our clients that their CEOs regularly use the word "Applecart" as a verb, as in “we should Applecart that.” We want to thank our clients, investors, and the hundreds of Applecarters whose trust and hard work has made this milestone possible. This is just the beginning. Let’s go! 🚀🚀 Learn more in the link included in the comments, and we’re hiring!
