Consumer & Marketplace

Why we invest

Since our first investment in Amazon to companies like Rover and Redfin, Madrona has led the way in creating marketplaces that reduce friction between buyers and sellers, often with consumers as the ultimate end user. Madrona partners with visionary founders leveraging technologies — from AI to infrastructure to developer tools — to create entirely new consumer experiences and significantly enhance marketplace interactions.
