CEO

“NVP is an extremely supportive investment partner. The firm was easy to work with on our somewhat unique deal structure, providing us the capital and ability to focus on growth. The partners’ deep operational and financial experience at NVP enable them to provide relevant strategic guidance and valuable assistance on the business development front to their portfolio companies, which was a major benefit to SideStep. NVP had all of the traits we were looking for in an investor and business partner, and we’re pleased to have worked with Bob and the team as we took SideStep through a successful exit.”
