“We have benefited tremendously from the strategic and financial support Platte River has provided. We were able to focus our innovation and technical expertise on an expanded geographic region and customer base, and Platte River was a critical partner in our success.”
Testimonials and endorsements reflect Platte River's and portfolio company management's opinions and beliefs regarding the company and the investment. Such opinions and beliefs are subjective, do not represent a complete assessment of the company, the market or Platte River's overall investment performance and cannot be independently verified. Such statements are being offered as references for purposes of demonstrating the benefits of working with the Platte River team and not for the purpose of soliciting investors. Portfolio company executives receive/received a salary and economics from the portfolio company. No executives were paid for their testimonial or endorsement. There is a conflict of interest in these unpaid testimonials and endorsements in that all speakers stand to benefit from Platte River’s success, and they work/worked for a Platte River portfolio company.
