2 v 220702Glimmerglass Networks Confidential 2 Company Overview Established 2 ½ years old, Silicon Valley-based, 60 employees Experienced, World-Class Technical Talent Shipped four generations of optical MEMS-based products. Well Funded, Venture-Backed Private Company We closed a large Series B during Optical Nuclear Winter. Shipping Products We’ve done it while others with a head start have failed. Multiple Customers We’ve closed real, paying customers. Quiet We execute in stealth instead of generating hype.
