An Awakening: LLR’s 2020 Year in Review

January 18, 2021

2020 was an awakening.

The deals done will always be important, but 2020 was about helping each other survive, adapt and grow. We learned a lot about ourselves and the communities where we work and live.

We are proud of the tremendous efforts by our portfolio companies and LLR teammates to support their colleagues, customers and communities. Some highlights:

• 306 consecutive days (and counting) working remotely and navigating the pandemic’s challenges
• 25+ new products and initiatives launched by our portfolio companies to help their customers and communities through a difficult year
• DEI led 40+ small group discussions among LLR teammates and portfolio company leaders sharing personal thoughts on racial injustice
• ESG became an even greater focus in our investing and LLR is a signatory to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment
• LLR 6 was raised, allowing us to continue to invest in companies, help them grow and create new jobs
• AND we made some new investments, sold a few others and added 11 teammates to the now 70+ LLR team
