Proactive participants in fixing, then improving the project.
Pros
We really appreciate an attitude to helps us. Not just formally to give us a feedback, but actively participate on the concrete steps to fix and improve current status of the project. For example: sharing a network or execution some crucial activities.
Cons
There si not much to say.
Advice for management
We found them through personal network. They are not so known in public. Not every person, we have met from them share the proactive attitude. It should be fixed.

Great partner, especially in tough times.
Pros
Pro-actively helping to solve business issues
Cons
Dislike is too strong a word. A perfect investor would also understand and be connected with key influencers in our line of business (telecommunication networks), but that's too much to ask for course.
Advice for management
Nothing comes to mind

Where does the money come from?
Cons
I heard from other founders that the source of their financing is not particularly clean. However, since I din't inquire about it during our talks I cannot confirm nor deny this.
