Christoph Janz - AngelList

I invest in 2-3 startups @ $50k-$150k a year

How I like to add value

Having founded and sold two Internet startups I have a pretty broad set of experiences, ranging from product development and user experience design to marketing, recruiting and financing. I try to leverage these insights, as well as the experiences from my existing angel investments. I won't bug you if you don't need me, but if you need me there isn't much that I won't do to help you succeed.

— Founder of a company Christoph took an intro to
Mr. Janz is highly approachable, enthusiastic and asks the right questions. I highly recommend him because he's someone with whom one can begin a conversation about a company even at the very earliest, "idea" stage. With ClassCloud, Mr. Janz has been a solid ally: encouraging and supportive while providing good guidance. You can be honest with him about your company's situation without feeling self-conscious or apologetic -- he can see potential even at a company's infancy. We're lucky to have been introduced to him!
