As early and ongoing investors in Stationwise, we believe so strongly in the company and the team behind it. We invest in founder-led companies that are built to last, and Stationwise is a powerful example of that philosophy in action. We invested with a thesis that Stationwise is building "permanent software" that is here to stay for decades to come.
More than most software vendors, Stationwise is an enduring partner to the fire departments it serves. The company's co-founder and CEO, Marcus Edwards, comes from a family of firefighters. Marcus brings deep personal conviction to this work and is building an enduring company that reflects the values of the fire service: integrity, accountability, and long-term commitment.
We only invest in software companies that have a strong technology foundation. Murat Aydos, Stationwise's co-founder and CTO, manages engineers across three countries, providing 24/7 support to firefighters at a competitive cost. Previously, Murat worked as a senior staffing engineer at Lyft, where he was responsible for mapping, routing, and dispatch. Before Lyft, Murat was a founding engineer at Udemy, giving us confidence in his ability to manage and scale engineering teams from the ground up.
We backed Marcus and Murat because they're focused on a long-term endgame. They have a vision for the fire service—and government beyond—that we believe will push the industry forward. They want to lead Stationwise to become a generational business rather than selling to private equity. We are more than happy to support that journey.
If you are an agency considering a partnership with Stationwise, we encourage you to do so with confidence. We are proud to back Marcus, Murat, and their team as they continue building one of the most trusted technology partners the fire service has seen.
