SendGrid was founded by Isaac Saldana, Jose Lopez, and Tim Jenkins in 2009. After graduating the Techstars program, they used this deck to raise their first funding round. According to David Cohen, the company originally aimed to raise $300,000, but ultimately secured $750k. The seed round was led by Highway 12 Ventures and also included SoftTech VC, FF Angel, and David Cohen. They went public via IPO at around a $1B valuation in 2017. Two years later, Twilio (whose Series B pitch deck is publicly available) acquired SendGrid for $2B.
