Jon has been a driving force in the Kansas City startup ecosystem for some time now. His positive energy, witty personality, and valuable business insight have allowed him to win over many advocates within the entrepreneurial community. He is both a friend and colleague to many of us. It's through these kinds of deep relationships that Jon has been able to accomplish so much. I feel privileged to have him as part of the KC startup community.

Jonny has been a pivotal member in Kansas City's new Startup Village and the startup community as a whole. He's personally helped us make some connections we wouldn't have otherwise made, or known about. I respect the manner in which he approaches his work.

Jonny has exhibited tremendous energy and passion in the pursuit of expanding the technology community in the Kansas City region. He has been willing to jump right into the fire in an effort to see that ideas are turned into action.

He has a great personality and is very approachable. His enthusiasm is contagious which I find to be a rare trait today.

He is very knowledgeable in a wide array of technology topics and speaks to his ability to absorb new information and apply it to his current projects.

Jonny has the agility to communicate effectively with a wide range of team players. Not many people can effectively pivot from entrepreneurs to corporate to government. Jonny quickly establishes trust in the group and engages those around him. He has been an asset to the entrepreneurial community in Kansas City. We need more people like Jonny Kot in our community.

Jon is one of the most supportive coaches I have ever worked with on and off the field. Taking over as head coach he immediately improved the success of KU Women’s Soccer. His ability to quickly connect with the players and set clear standards of expectations enabled us to quickly improve teamwork and personal skill level. Off the field he was always available to help us grow as individuals. His guidance helped me focus on my education and supported me in switching from a student into a young professional.

Jonny is a social hub among Kansas City's entrepreneurship community. When you meet Jonny you'll quickly notice his dynamic interpersonal savvy. I have come to appreciate his keen ability to identify trends, then connect people, visions, and institutions in radical ways to create powerful synergies across industries and networks. Entrepreneurs (myself included) turn to him because he is an altruistic leader who coaches and mentors based on his deep appreciation for time-tested values. Most importantly, Jonny is able to harness all of these unquantifiable skills and consistently deliver the only two quantifiable things that matter at the end of the day: value and money.

Most entrepreneurial landscapes (with a few notable exceptions) are fragmented and siloed. It has been a pleasure working with Jon on a number of initiatives that have helped to reinforce the core infrastructure and interconnectedness of the KC startup ecosystem. Jon has been at the table from the early days and has been a tireless champion for entrepreneurship both internally and outside of the region. With intense tenacity, Jon has taken a wrecking ball to many of the barriers keeping people apart. This approach has allowed Jon to anchor a number of significant developments in an impressively short period of time. Bottom line, Jon is one of the guys actually making it happen.

Jon excels at relationship building and was instrumental in our success in the mid-West. He is a strong technologist with a tremendous work ethic and a pleasure to have on the team. Jon would be an asset for any company looking for these valueable skills.
