Joy Tang
Founder & CEO, Markable
Testimonial:
"After only two short meetings with Alireza, it was clear to us he had a deep understanding of the B2B SaaS business as well as a broad network of top-level players spanning the globe. He polished our business model and pricing in 20 minutes. Within a few weeks of the first meeting, we agreed to let Plug and Play lead our bridge round. Alireza's team worked super efficiently to close and also introduced multiple big follow investors relevant to our industry to complete the round. Now our valuation has increased 4X in only one year, and we are a global leader in our space. I cannot thank Alireza enough - he definitely have the right to participate in all of Markable.ai’s subsequent rounds."
