Today marks a significant milestone for Interplay as we proudly announce the closing of our third fund, securing $45M to focus on B2B marketplaces and vertical software. This third fund underscores our commitment to the prevailing trend in software - a substantial shift towards specialization. Reaching this point is a testament to the collective efforts of our exceptional team: Mark Peter Davis, Kevin W. Tung, Mike Rogers, Christian Mark, Caroline Elliott, Stacy Greco, Will Richardson and the rest of Interplay. A special thanks to Christine Hall at TechCrunch for covering our announcement and taking the time to delve into the Interplay journey. https://lnkd.in/eQY94tmk

Hadley Founder & CEO | 529 Enthusiast | SEC-Registered Investment Advisor | Presidential Leadership Scholar
It takes a village to save for school, and it takes a village to run Hadley. Last week our team came together in LA for our off-site, and we are excited to share we've onboarded our first enterprise client who now makes it easy (and fun) for their employees to save in 529 accounts. How this works: ✅ Hadley enables employers to provide 529 benefits for employees, who use our app to connect with family and friends to save together ✅ Hadley handles 529 payroll deductions, employer matches, and one-time employer contributions (employee recognitions, new baby celebrations, etc.) ✅ Most benefits & payroll platforms lack access to 529s and 529 ABLEs, and we are talking with a few large enterprise benefits platforms to fix this ✅ Come check us out: www.gohadley.com/employers If you're interested in having 529 benefits at your company or know a company that would, please let me know. Special shout-outs to Hadley's team Amanda Powers, Molly Schmidt, Tim Katlic, and David Renz and thank you to Michael Ye for your continued support. In the meantime, you (yes you!) will always be able to download the Hadley app and connect among family and friends. Please feel free to add me as a friend: www.gohadley.com/#download We go furthest when we go -- and save -- together.

Big time congrats to Emily Luk, CPA, CFA, Channing Allen and the rest of the Plenty team for all the amazing work they've done this far and reaching this exciting milestone! We're honored and excited to be a part of their journey. If you're not familiar with them yet, Plenty is a wealth platform helping modern couples invest and plan for their future together. They bring the investment strategies and products of the wealthy to the everyday household. Learn more about their story/launch in this great writeup on Fortune (https://ipl.vc/pl524).
✨ A journey 2 years in the making, a relationship 5 years strong. 🎉 Today, we’re launching Plenty. When Channing Allen and I got engaged, we lived the problem we set out to solve. Our journey to starting Plenty started on a beach, dreaming about the future we wanted to create together. It led to interviewing financial planners, 10-tab spreadsheet models of our own finances, and drawing after drawing of a product we wish existed. What started with us, led us to discovering one of the biggest problems facing our generation today. We discovered how broken the financial industry is for couples who simply want to work together, for people who aren’t financial experts, and for those early on in their wealth building journeys. We built Plenty for couples like us. Couples who believe in the power of working together. We’re excited for a world with plenty. If you’re excited about what we’re building, help share our launch by reposting and try our 2 week free trial yourself at withplenty.com.
