how we met
Defy Sage Steve Miller introduced Michael Hemlepp to Neil when he was CEO of RediLearning. Neil passed—and RediLearning had an excellent outcome, with significant return to investors. Luckily, we found another prime opportunity to back Michael.
why we love them
"The first time we met Michael, we passed on his company that was introduced to us by defy Sage Steve Miller. He sold that business for a big outcome to investors, and luckily we didn't pass this time. He built Honorlock into a vital company that powers remote test proctoring today in a time when this is essential to keeping our kids in school."
