In the announcement of the funding Bedrock Founder and Managing Partner Eric Stromberg said, “The success of The Athletic has so far played a very strong role in bending the narrative of ad-supported media business models to subscription-based models, which are much more aligned with what benefits the end customer."

The Gunderson Dettmer deal team was led by Andy Bradley and included Jessica Furr, Jared Mayberry, Scout Moran, Elaine Strand Sylvester and Julie Mahoney.
