From Startup to Exit episodes:

September 19, 2023 The founding of Rover and the business model behind Pioneer Square Labs, a conversation with Greg Gottesman
In 2011, Greg Gottesman had a bad experience leaving his dog for the weekend at a local Kennel. That experience led him to pitch the idea for Rover at a Startup Weekend which he won. That led to the formation of Rover and the rest is history.

In our second podcast episode, Gowri Shankar and I explore the foundation of Rover as well as the business model behind Pioneer Square Labs.

Greg Gottesman is a Managing Director and Co-Founder of PSL. Prior to PSL, Greg served as one of the three initial Managing Directors of Madrona Venture Group, where he worked for almost 20 years. He also co-founded and led Madrona Venture Labs.

Greg represents PSL on the boards of Boundless, Ever.green, Joon, and Kevala. He is also the founder, current board member, and former CEO of Rover.com.

August 16, 2023 The founding of OfferUp, a conversation with OfferUp founder Nick Huzar
Today, we have invited Nick Huzar, the co-founder and former CEO of OfferUp for more than a decade. He is currently operating as a board director, brand evangelist, and advising the CEO on strategic projects. Nick's experience lies in building two-sided marketplaces from the ground up. Through this, he has raised over $380M in financing from leading investors including A16Z, TRowe, Tiger, Allen.co, GGV, Coatue, and more. He is currently focused on simplifying the complexity around climate change via my weekly video podcast @ www.stufftv.org. Additionally, he will ride anything with a board (wake surf, skate, wing foil, snowboard..).

1 in 5 people over the age of 14 used OfferUp in 2021. OfferUp now facilitates billions of dollars in transactions every single month. They most recently branched out from shopping and now have a marketplace for local jobs as well.
