Yep.
Chris and I worked closely together for many years at CA.
All right, good.
I'd be embarrassed.
He built our security and storage business.
He took our antivirus business and made it a leader, made it a several hundred million dollar business.
So he was certainly a powerhouse at CA.
I left CA a little over a year ago.
That would have been 2016.
yeah in 2016 uh chris called me i was you know had made several investments in the technology area i'm a mentor to a lot of startup companies in the new york city area
And Chris calls me one day and says, hey, there's a great opportunity here.
I have an opportunity to lead a new software company, SaaS based company in the data space.
And I need you to partner with me.
So I looked into it, looked into the technology, looked into the product line.
Chris brought one of his best sales guys.
They sold me on the technology.
I looked at it and I said, hey, you know, this is an interesting space.
I get to build another cloud-based SaaS company, software company here in Long Island.
And let's go for it.
So, yeah, a quick answer is we use our own technology to get to enrich data so that our goal is to make the sales force more productive.
