Greentown has been such a tremendous partner to enable us to do what we need to do. We started off with one guy in the lab, and two months later we’re going to have six people there. That ability to scale up was incredibly valuable. The flexibility and right-sizing for our needs and the immediate access have been the three pillars that have made us so successful at Greentown.
