Marker Learning – a leading provider of remote learning and attention disability services – today announced it has raised $15 million in Series A funding, led by Andreessen Horowitz. The round also included investments from the venture arm of Richard Branson’s Virgin Group, as well as existing investors, Primary Ventures, Difference Partners, Operator Partners, and Night Ventures. With the support of Andreessen Horowitz’s Cultural Leadership Fund, strategic investors in the round included NBA champion Danny Green (GreenLight Venture Partners), creative director and entrepreneur La Mar Taylor, 2X WNBA champion Jewell Loyd, among others.
For co-founders Stefan Bauer and Emily Yudofsky, Marker’s mission is personal. Both were diagnosed with dyslexia in elementary school and experienced firsthand the costly and time-consuming process of seeking and receiving appropriate support.
“We are transforming access to learning and attention disability care – from early diagnosis to navigating the world as a neurodivergent adult,” explained CEO and Co-Founder, Stefan Bauer.
