Drew White, Founder and CEO of Grid, said, “We have had the opportunity to get to know Topspin over several years, initially through one of its portfolio companies in 2021. Through this relationship we have seen first-hand the valuable financial and operational guidance, as well as their highly collaborative partnership approach. Topspin has remained an active partner, offering strategic insights and genuine support for our vision. I am excited to take this partnership to the next level and leverage Topspin’s expertise and resources as we embark on this next phase of growth.”
