This is the fourth time for Mr. Maltz to be recognized. It's an amazing time to work in later-stage investing, said Jules Maltz. Companies are growing faster than ever with the potential to reach hundreds of millions of users and meaningful revenue within a very short timeframe. I feel lucky to be able to work with many purpose-driven entrepreneurs and partner with them to create the market leaders of the future.
At IVP, we are a dedicated group of investment professionals who specialize in later-stage company growth, said Eric Liaw. Growth is our doctrine - we truly believe it's the key catalyst that separates the ultimate winners from the rest of the pack. The best part of my job is working with passionate entrepreneurs who inspire their organizations to reach beyond what they thought possible. We pride ourselves on the consistency in our approach to partnering with management through both ups and downs. By supporting our companies with lessons learned from both success and disappointment, we're grateful to play a role in our companies' journeys from nascent start-ups to their full potential as market-defining businesses that touch the lives of their customers, employees, and stakeholders.
