PT Ventures LLC is a multifaceted venture capitalist firm and in addition to being the parent company of EWG, it has several multi-million dollar companies in it’s portfolio. EWG is part of an established family of suc- cessful businesses and benefits from both human and financial resources that are broad-reaching.
