Jesús Encinar
Angel Investor
Madrid, Spain
Jesús Encinar is a seed investor in Madrid focused on Internet and Online Portals. In less than a week two CFOs of major American Internet companies have announced almost the same, first the CFO of Google announced that stopped working to spend more time with his family just a week after announcing Uber CFO same . The reaction of many was similar: comment on the wisdom of such a human decision that puts personal life ahead ofprofessional and family ahead of work.Almost nobody has implications that a CFO to step down at the end of the first quarter when to sign the accounts for the previous year. Insurance companies that are solid but is also a good time to go scot-free and avoid taking any responsibility for the accounts of the year. The difference between going before March 31 or leave on April 1 for a CFO is important, but it is not a positive sign for a company.Personally I admire most leaders who sacrifice and continue to soldier doing his job than those who decide to enjoy life and family. Especially when those leaders do not need to make more money and do it for a sense of responsibility to their obligations. I understand people who leave their jobs for attending a sick family member and similar topics, but "retiring" and stop having investment projects or simply "enjoy" ... I do not know, I feel somewhat responsible.

| Etece is a Spanish TaskRabbit style startup that offers an online platform for people who need a job doing but don’t have the time to do it themselves. The company was founded in Madrid in late 2012. Etece said it plans to expand its coverage area, pushing out from the three Spanish cities it currently serves — namely Madrid, Barcelona andValencia — to add four more “in the coming weeks”, namely: Seville, Malaga, Bilbao and Zaragoza.It has recruited 400 self-employed “problem solvers” to support its task-solving platform — with typical tasks including dog walking, cleaning, cooking and IKEA furniture pick ups. It’s clearly going to need to ramp that number up as it scales up to more cities but that process will likely be helped by tough times in the Spanish economy and especially high unemployment. It says it’s aiming to have 1,000 “problem solvers” supporting the business, by the end of 2013.Etece’s platform competes with traditional high street professional services providers by having its problem solvers compete with each other to win the business. It reckons this leads to an average 35% discount for the person wanting the task done. Its problem solvers take 81% of that money — with its cut being just shy of a fifth (19%). | $531K / Seed / Nov 01, 2012 |
