An outsourced sales company focused on maintenance and support renewals for technology companies, by its backer's account, which completed an initial public offering in 2011.
What Happened Next
Exited by public offering in 2011: a backer's page says the company listed on NASDAQ in March 2011 after its own 2003 investment, and a second backer lists it in its hall of fame beside both men.
They took it public 8 years in, in 2011, and kept running it.
The exit ends of journeys like this one, where the buyer has announced the purchase itself, are on Buyers.
