2012 GVA Alumnus
GVA was a great opportunity to take a step back and look at our business with a broader and more strategic framework. We were asked the right questions during the program, which allowed us to define where we wanted to take the business. After the program, we created our expansion plan and acquired a company in Panama the following year.”
– Antonio Ortiz
CEO, Connect Assistance
2016 GVA Alumnus
Participating in the GVA had a profound effect on our business. The guided process pushed us to question every aspect of our business. As a result, today we feel very clear on the direction we must pursue to accelerate our growth significantly.
– María Cristina Oruña
President, Cobalto
2016 GVA Alumnus
The GVA taught us to focus on what we do best. The knowledge we gained prompted us to reevaluate our business model, moving away from being a service based company and toward providing specific products. These and other changes have led to the recent expansion of our operations with an infusion of $8.9 million dollars in investments and 85 new positions in our company.
– Ángel Pérez
Vice President, Rock Solid Technologies
2010 GVA Alumnus
After graduating from the GVA, we increased our revenue by 24 percent, net income by 53 percent and headcount by 18 percent. We also added two new business lines and have three new products in the development pipeline. I became an active angel investor through Dream Code Capital which, to date, has already made two investments.
