Kevin and his team led our successful raise through the EIIS platform in 2021. have been working with Kevin since 2019 and have always found him very diligent while also being very approachable and available to take my call. Kevin has a varied interest in many facets of business, including Technology and continues to take time to understand our business in depth. Post raise, we continue to meet with Kevin on a weekly basis and he provides an excellent conduit between Ascend Cloud and our investors. couldn't recommend Kevin and Quintas highly enough it you are looking at raising funds.

"Velo Coffee Roasters came across Kevin and the team at Quintas through some of our EIIS Investors initially. When we did a subsequent larger raise the Quintas team became more involved. The detailed knowledge of Kevin and his team on the everchanging regulation proved invaluable. Since then Kevin has carried out quarterly reviews on behalf of our investors, I feel they have been a huge benefit to both parties."
