"Rockstar" CEO Ryan Williams Raises over $50M for 'Cadre' Startup

Real estate investment startup Cadre has just raised a staggering $50M in a Series B funding round, compared to raising only $18.3 million during Series A last year. Backers included General Catalyst, Jack Ma (Alibaba), Thrive Capital’s Joshua Kushner and his brother, real estate developer Jared Kushner, who are also strategic advisers.
