Our Partnership
At the outset of our partnership with Oyster, we worked hand in hand with Tony Jamous to define the organisation that he would need to build. In determining the organisational cadence of the business, considering the talent requirements for a new vertical and devising how that talent could be developed to capture an emerging market opportunity, our partnership formed a critical foundation for a period of rapid growth. The organisation expanded from 0 to 600+ employees across 72 different countries. Over 3 rounds of fundraising, Oyster has raised over $286M, positioning it ahead of an extremely valuable, high-growth category.
