Yes, I am.

Sure, sure.

So basically we're a software company, SaaS company, and we help typically larger organizations to better find, understand, and control their data ultimately.

Yeah, sure.

So we really got started in financial services.

So every bank today needs data governance, which is what we do.

How is this called?

Which basically, the reason that they need that is for regulatory compliance.

So every bank needs to be able to show to the regulators that they understand what data they have, how it flows through the organization.

So ultimately, if they report to the regulators, they have full confidence that the numbers are correct.

That's really where we started.

But right now, it's really across lots of different industries, driven by big data, analytics, IoT, AI, and so forth.

We raised capital.

So we actually started out of school, my first company, the first thing I ever did.

And we raised a seed round of about 800,000 euros, which at the time was a pretty big deal, especially in Belgium, which doesn't really know venture capital as we know it here in the US.

But then we started to bootstrap it into profitability.

We were profitable, tripling every year.

And that's when we raised our first bigger rounds, our Series B rounds of about 20 million.

And then we were in kind of full growth mode.

In December, just last December, we did a $50 million round, series three round.
