Huge congrats to CircleCI on their $100M Series F led by Greenspring Associates at a $1.7B valuation!! CircleCI's story is one of perseverance and great leadership. Through multiple early funding rounds, investors asked questions about size of the market, whether a standalone CI/CD company would exist, and worried that competitors would crush Circle by offering base level CI for free. Through it all, the leadership team led by Jim Rose kept an intense focus on the north star of user engagement and developer experience. This led to a re-platform in 2017, pricing change to usage-based pricing, and much more that would sometimes anger users immediately even though it was in their best interest long term. This funding round is a testament to the team's focus and mission to bring the best CI/CD experience to developers! Congrats Jim Rose Rob Zuber Chitra B.
