COLOMBIA, 12 October  2021 Goama successfully pitched to Sony’s Shark Tank Colombia securing an investment of twice what it was seeking and maintaining the valuation.

To participate in the show and secure a Shark’s investment is a dream come true for the Goama team, and the funds will be used to further accelerate Goama’s growth in the region .

Nicolas Koifman, VP of Latin America and Fernando Cardona, Business Development Manager for Goama succeeded in pitching the company’s gamification solution during the 4th episode of Shark Tank Colombia’s 4th season. The episode aired on Friday October 8th at 10pm Colombia.(GMT-5)

Colombian entrepreneur Taro Araya, who also acts as CEO of Goama said :

“Swimming with the Sharks has been a great experience and we are very happy that we have survived the tank.  We are grateful to have a great Shark such as @Leo Wehe to join our investor list and looking forward to continuing our expansion in Latam while enjoying the fun ride.  We are looking forward to continuing our growth in LATAM as we cover the countries that make up this awesome region. “

Goama will use the funding specifically to fast track our efforts in Latin America and ramp up our distribution channels and teams.

Argentinean Shark Leonardo Wehe, Shark Tank said :

“Closely following the gaming industry for many years, I realized instantly the quality of Goama’s development and the unique business approach to connect millions of engaged super app users with staple consumer products. This Industry is a crazy thing. The market they are in is so big and they are billing so much money and the companies are valuing them at such a high value. Rarely in Shark Tank does a company appear that has the potential to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars, so quickly.

Looking forward to actively joining the Goama family and the incredible (and challenging!) journey that lies ahead.”

Nicolas Koifman VP of Latin America commented:

“Our participation in this great show has been very challenging but also fun and rewarding. We succeeded in making the sharks experience Goama’s gamified platform that our current partner apps are already using. We also created a customized game just for Shark Tank and presented it on the show and from there it was clear to see how a brand can generate even more audience engagement through such activations.

Having someone like Leo Wehe be a part of Goama is key for us in the Latin American market. This is especially important as we plan to expand further in the Latin American market.“

With engagement and gamification at the core of our product design, we have been able to deliver a compelling proposition and effective solution to common problems faced by apps.

Gaming is now a big part of everyday culture in today’s modern world. It’s only going to go from strength to strength, too.

One aspect of gaming which has really kicked on in recent times is mobile gaming. We all have access to a smartphone in the modern world, therefore opening up an array of gaming possibilities in the process. This all comes despite the release of a sophisticated console such as a PlayStation 5, with smartphone gaming offering something different to a console gaming experience. It looks like mobile gaming is here to stay, ultimately.

So, how does this all translate to a brand’s engagement? Here at Goama we provide brands with the exciting opportunity to freshly engage with various segments of the audience using mobile games.
