“When Greg Wade and I founded Pancetera, we had a variety of investors to choose from for our Series A raise. We choose to work with HWVP because they are focused solely on enterprise software start-ups. During the course of the company life, we found Lars Leckie unafraid to share his perspective in a constructive manner, which showed his deep level of engagement and willingness to explore possibilities and scenarios while also mindful of his role as a board member and the wishes of the founders. We benefited from Lars’ understanding of the business and look forward to pitching HWVP in the future.””
