Thankfully, through all this our NCN family remained safe and healthy. And despite the many unexpected challenges, 52 our portfolio companies have performed admirably and continue to execute their growth plans. CompaniesCompanies While some of our companies experienced slower sales cycles and other challenges as the SupportedSupported by NCN by NCN pandemic hit, most have bounced back more quickly than expected. This is in large part due to the business-critical nature of their solutions, the relevance of their offerings, and the determination of highly motivated entrepreneurs. NCN’s model of leveraging the expertise of $ our investor partners has also been extremely valuable through this time. Having experienced 84M operators engaged in our portfolio has been a tremendous resource and advantage for our companies.
