Our Partnership

Partnering with Cyber Guru during a period of rapid international growth, we worked closely with the founders to strengthen the company’s commercial leadership and expand its go-to-market capabilities. Our collaboration led to the appointment of a Vice President of International Sales, a senior leader with deep expertise in scaling enterprise software businesses across multiple regions. This hire is tasked with driving international revenue growth, building high-performing commercial teams, and accelerating expansion in strategic markets. By strengthening Cyber Guru’s leadership bench, our partnership has reinforced the company’s ability to scale globally and cement its position as a category leader in cybersecurity awareness.
