Hi <<First Name>>,

This month we have two new investments to share with you. One of them is Loom, a new kind of work communication tool that lets you create shareable videos instantly. The other one is Zenaton, a process orchestration tool for developers. To celebrate the new members of the #p9family, we’ve turned this month’s newsletter into a LoveLoomletter. Take a look!

But before that, we would like to “officially” welcome Lara, who has joined the TA team (a.k.a the Totally Amazing or Team Assistant team), and is already doing wonders here. 😍

Loom

About a year ago we co-led a seed round into Loom, but until recently the financing has been kept under wraps, and so we’re all the more excited to finally declare our love to Loom publicly. 💌 Want to fall in love, too? Watch this video of Joe, Loom’s CEO, using Loom to talk about Loom and what's Looming on the horizons. 🔮
 

Zenaton

We’re equally excited to welcome Zenaton to the #p9family. 💘 Let Gilles and Louis, the co-founders of Zenaton, explain to you what Zenaton is about (hint, it’s 🔥🔥). And if you want to dig in deeper, check out this post.

This month it’s Patrick, our CUO (Chief Unicorn Officer), who shares the recent news from the #p9family.
