"We are excited about the new growth opportunities that will come from partnering with General Atlantic."
- Scot Melland CEO, Dice

Media & Consumer

General Atlantic has invested in a number of consumer/Internet firms over the last decade.  GA recognized early on that growth in Internet and wireless/broadband penetration of the global consumer market would create significant opportunities as consumers began to embrace technology and connectivity to search, find and transact. 

GA's first investment in this area was in E*trade in 1995, for which we helped to develop the Internet strategy that is the core of the business today.  Since then, GA has invested $1.5 billion in over 20 companies in the Media & Consumer sector.
