Finally, innovation in the venture capital business model! Hats off to Alexis, Jean, Rose and Vincent at Kima Ventures for breaking the mold and having the courage to communicate openly with entrepreneurs about where they stand in the investment pipeline.

Investors always expect transparency from entrepreneurs. It should be a two-way street and it is refreshing to see Kima leading by example with Kima Status. It should be standard among investors, but today it seems to be a bold and courageous move. Well done. I like your style. I look forward to more good things from your team and your portfolio. #SmartMoney
