Cooks Venture

Cooks Venture is a food company committed to regenerative agriculture and providing consumers with responsible food choices. Founded by Matthew Wadiak, founder & former COO of Blue Apron, the company is built on the well-documented scientific principle that sequestering carbon into the soil on agricultural lands mitigates climate change.

Table22

At Table22, we believe that restaurants are critical centers of community, creativity, and joy. Our mission is to help them thrive economically, so that every chef can create freely, bring joy to customers, and strengthen their communities through food. In service of that mission, each day we work to help restaurants create and deliver magical hospitality experiences — an amazing meal kit, house olive oil, or a unique wine selection; an online cooking class with your favorite chef; a recipe or a dispatch from the kitchen, delivered exclusively to your inbox — and build recurring revenue through a new model of monthly consumer subscription. Through this work, we empower restaurants to connect with and serve fans in new ways — bringing the joy of dining outside their four physical walls, and giving diners new ways to experience and surround themselves with their favorite chefs & restaurants. Though Table22 launched only last year, today we are proud to be partnered with celebrated restaurants and neighborhood institutions across 30+ major American cities. Our partners span everything from high-end Michelin Starred spots — like The Four Horsemen (NYC), pasjoli (Los Angeles), Oxalis (NYC), to community favorites like Austin's The Peached Tortilla and Houston's The Blind Goat (from MasterChef Winner Christine Ha). Our NYC/Austin-based team of food-loving technologists is made up of former leaders from Warby Parker, Squarespace, Uber and Blink Health, and backed by leading investors behind Airbnb, Spotify, Peloton, Etsy, and many others, as well as food world leaders behind institutions like Sweetgreen and Blue Hill Farm.
