Bevy Raises $6.4M

BigDoor-2-800x160

Startup Grind began as a global community for entrepreneurs and has grown into chapters in over 400 cities. Needing technology that could manage community events in a simple yet effective way, Startup Grind co-founders Derek Andersen and Joel Fernandes teamed up with Alex Bendig to build exactly that: Bevy, an enterprise community events platform that was spun out into it's own company in 2017.

Today, Bevy announces $6.4 million in funding from Upfront Ventures, Aaron Skonnard (Pluralsight CEO), Jared and Ryan Smith (co-founders of Qualtrics), and Steve Blank.

“Bevy is positioned to help companies build customers and brand through scaling community events,” said Derek Andersen, CEO of Bevy. “Our team has been solving this problem since
2010 and we are thrilled to build a product for marketers looking to create deep relationships with their customers. We help companies spread their products and values through rich in-person interactions.”
