Top Tech Startups to Work For in 2026

1stdibs is the premier luxury marketplace for rare and beautiful objects in furniture, fashion, fine art, and jewelry. We connect the world’s most respected dealers with buyers who share in the pursuit of beautiful design. In doing so we strive to define and shape the future of antique, vintage, and contemporary buying-and-selling. We consider ourselves unique among start-ups. We’ve been around since 2001, yet still exhibit strong entrepreneurial DNA that informs how we operate and function as a company. It helps that we are led by a seasoned executive team that has seen it all: CEO David Rosenblatt formerly ran DoubleClick and negotiated its sale to Google for $3.2 billion. Other executives have held senior roles at eBay, Gilt Groupe, FreshDirect, BarnesandNoble.com, MLB.com, Group Commerce, and Venmo. We are backed by prominent venture capital firms like Benchmark Capital, Index Ventures, Insight Ventures, and Spark Capital. Alibaba Group has also made a significant investment.
