OFFICE MANAGER

“In the beginning of our entrepreneurial journey, as any other founder, we faced a ton of challenges. Adding to the long list of challenges there was COVID19. A founder building an AI solution for the aviation industry at a seed stage, trying to fundraise and then hit by COVID19? This was a nightmare. At the time, lots of investors lost faith except Jota2. This is a true example of a founder-oriented fund focused on the people.”
