Warby Parker Sees Its Way To $36.8M Series B Round, Led By General Catalyst

#SuryaRay #Surya David Gilboa and Neil Blumenthal founded Warby Parker last year in an attempt to breathe new life into the eyewear industry. The New York City-based startup has since rocketed to popularity by selling designer and prescription glasses online, for $95 — a price that now includes free shipping and returns. Warby raised $13.5 million in a couple of rounds beginning last year, with a bunch of notable investors signing on to back the young company. Today, according to a Form D filing released by the SEC this evening, the startup is adding a whole bunch of new coin to its coffers — $36.8 million to be precise. As the filing shows, the startup has sold $36.8 million of a potential $40 million round, with $3.19 remaining. http://dlvr.it/27PTRG @suryaray
