“Florin V, Dan C and Cristi M of EGV are some of the best VCs out there. They've backed us before anything was obvious - high conviction, always reply thoughtfully, they help. Intro'd us to key advisors, we wouldn't be where we are without them. ”

“The entire EGV team has been of immense value. They've stayed the course through thick and thin. At every pivotal moment we turn to Cristi, Dan, Florin, and Bogdan as a sounding board - they consistently bring a range of perspectives. ”
