Proud to co-lead @highalpha investment in Luster, continuing to back Christina, Jodi, Kyle and team. I'm blown away by customers' improved revenue, ramp time, pipeline, and manager time savings.

Sales & enablement teams not using Luster are needlessly underperforming.

[High Alpha @highalpha]

More portfolio news: We've co-led a $3M funding round for Luster, the first AI-powered Predictive Enablement™ platform. Luster is helping customer-facing teams stop preventable mistakes before they impact revenue.

Congrats to the Luster team!
