D1 Capital led a $150m funding round in Guild Education.

Synopsis

D1 Capital, a global investment firm, led a $150m funding round in Guild Education, an employee education platform. Bessemer Venture Partners, Cowboy Ventures, D1 Capital Partners, Emerson Collective, General Catalyst, GSV, Harrison Metal, ICONIQ, Next Play Capital, Redpoint Ventures, and Salesforce Ventures also participated in the round. “American workers are currently in a buyer’s market when it comes to choosing where to work, as more and more ‘help wanted’ signs go up in the post-Covid recovery. But they also face a ticking clock — many of those frontline jobs face major disruption and automation in the next 5-10 years, and the war for talent is accelerating the adoption of automation technology. Those workers want and need to see upskilling opportunities and a career path as a part of any job they take,” Rachel Carlson, Guild Education CEO & Co-Founder.
