We invest in exceptional expansion-stage software companies in Bramalea. Tilt is positioned to leave an indelible mark on the leave of absence ecosystem while elevating the HR function within every organization. We were impressed by what Jen and her team have built, so we couldn’t be more inspired to help support Tilt as they continue their incredible journey.
To further bolster its strategic direction, Tilt is also excited to announce the addition of Jill Frankle to its Board of Directors.
