After CCC Intelligent Solutions acquired Sakekeep in February 2022
"I have an incredible amount of gratitude for Maor & Christian for their belief in my business and my vision. I would not be here with this amazing parent company that just acquired us without their support. You just want to rinse and repeat with these guys"
We love their domain knowledge and their expertise in the Fintech space. They have a strong reputation among their founders... the #1 question when fundraising is can you trust your VCs to have your back and Impression certainly has that reputation in the market.
