Cobi invested in our Company, Netgamix, in the Summer of 2011. Since the first moment he collaborated with us as if he was a team member, connecting us with possible partners, investors, advisors, mentors and with his help Netgamix has really been accelerated.
It is difficult to find an investor like Jose Cobian. He is profesional and passionate at the same time. He thinks big and makes things work.

Cobi is a rare kind of investor. Not only he can quickly introduce you to his huge network of contacts or advise you about complex business models but he has an strong will and energy and passion that gives your startup the motivation to break any barrier that stands on your way!

Jose Cobian invested in Linkovery in summer of 2011. This guy is the kind of investor that every startup wants. He is a very weel connected advisor, knows about everything you need or knows the perfect guy that can help you. He has been a powerful hand that help us to redefine our roadmap, to set up our correct goals, to connect with the right people to reach them and has been the telephone hope-line in the bad moments.
If you have a startup, if no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire... The A...Jose Cobian.

Jose has been of great help to uSpeka both as an investor and a mentor. His tenacity, well rounded knowledge of many markets and the challenges faced by startups have helped make uSpeak the success it is today... In particular his ability to connect people and ideas has created a lot of value for us.
