We at Aviron are excited to announce our $18.5M Series A, led by Chris Carey and his team at Stripes, with additional investment from Global Founders Capital, Formic Ventures, and 24-Hour Fitness founder Mark Mastrov.

Aviron is a gaming-led, smart rowing machine for people like us who have busy lives and limited time, yet recognize the physical, mental, and emotional importance that comes with fitness. Aviron combines high intensity interval training (HIIT) workouts that tend to be short, challenging, and include the dual benefits of burning calories while building muscle with game-based content and psychology, making workouts fun and addictive.

Our Series A will go toward growing our team. We plan to double in size over the next year with an emphasis on hiring engineers and software developers to increase product development and expand our library of entertainment offerings. We’ll expand our online presence in the US market, enter the retail market, and increase our inventory investment to guard against supply chain issues. Most importantly, we have a ton of new content and feature releases in the works including the addition of popular streaming entertainment platforms like Netflix coming this quarter.

In addition to the funding, I am pleased to announce that Amy Curry-Staschke has joined our team as Chief Operating Officer. Her resume speaks for itself, from her tenure at Nike, Lululemon Athletica, and Burton Snowboards, we are excited that she decided to bring her expertise and leadership to Aviron.
