Lloyed is an extremely creative individual with the drive and ambition to execute a plan, no matter how large it may seem. A leader in the tech community, Lloyed has proven to be a valuable resource on any team he is a part of.

Not only helping to bridge the gap for many Canadian companies looking to enter into the Valley, Lloyed with Boast Capital has helped many companies receive government funding.

I would be happy to refer Lloyed to any of my colleagues and look forward to his continued success.

Lloyed is a knowledgeable and enchanted senior leader in business development, sales and marketing fields. He is passionate and he has tireless energy to help others become successful in what they do. He ensures members in his networks are well informed. He is able to connect individuals with great resources to solve issues in funding, operations and customers outreach.

I have known Lloyed for almost four years since his first SME Toronto event engagement on the Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) program, which he was a subject matter expert and a presenter. (SME is a non-for-profit organization, and its short for Society of Manufacturing Engineers.) The following year, Lloyed joined SME. He was one of the key contributors to SME Toronto’s governance board that planned and steered keynote events for 6000 professionals, over 500 were paid members. Subsequently, he became the director of Marketing for this organization.

During his tenure at SME Toronto, Lloyed made many excellent recommendations and changes to improve the chapter's services to its fellows. He truly demonstrated his creativity, candid, hardworking, know-how and goal getter personality. Most recently, I was greatly impressed with Mr. Guy Kawasaki’s event that Lloyed organized. Mr. Kawasaki spoke about Enchantment. And, the end result of the event truly reflected that Lloyed had mastered the concepts of enchantment and evangelism.

I highly recommend taking Lloyed along with you to build a successful business!

Lloyed is consistently pleasant, tackling all projects with dedication and a smile.

Besides being a joy to work with, Lloyed is a take-charge person who is able to present creative ideas and communicate the benefits. He has brilliantly developed several marketing plans for our company. And we are expecting new revenue as a direct result of the plans designed by Lloyed.

Though he was an asset to our marketing efforts, Lloyed was also extraordinarily helpful in the areas of business development.

Lloyed is a leader in marketing, inspiring and motivating other.

I highly recommend working with Lloyed. .

Sincerely,
Ben

His ability to think creatively and innate leadership abilities were apparent right from the start.

I was fortunate to meet Lloyed at Startup weekend Calgary. He is extremely reliable, motivated, enthusiastic and hard working. Lloyed has great problem solving skills, good judgement, and also an extensive amount of experience in the startup world. Having only been in Calgary for a short term, Lloyed has already established himself to be an prominent member of the Calgary startup scene. He is a great asset to any team and I would highly recommend anyone to work with him!

I was introduced to the term "thought-leader" while accompanying Lloyed Lobo to a meeting with a major prospect; Lloyed used the term to describe someone who is at the forefront of their industry, a pioneer who doesn't follow the trends - rather, someone who compels the trends. During that same meeting, the prospect was glued to Lloyed as he wowed them with marketing ideas, networking tips, sales strategies, industry insights, etc... Needless to say, the prospect committed on the spot but not because they were sold by a great salesperson, but because they wanted to align themselves with an energetic, fresh-thinking visionary who brings immediate impact to those around him.

Lloyed Lobo is a thought-leader.

Working for and with Lloyed was fun and effective. His leadership style allowed me to take ownership of my work, while providing excellent guidance along the way. Lloyed is the type of person that will not let up until the job is done right, and is always trying to find ways to build strong relationships within the team. His passion, drive, and business intelligence was inspiring, and drove me to work harder and better.

Lloyed brings a cheerful disposition and really understands how to save our company money with the SR&ED tax credit program. He was very professional and very clear on his strategy including savings and benefits to our company. I would recommend Lloyed as person of great integrity and a great person to work with. Oh did I mention that is an awesome salesman?
