HOWZAT media

HOWZAT media was founded in 2006 by Hugo Burge and David Soskin.

We (Hugo and David ) were involved in the purchase of Cheapflights in early 2000 and have since managed the Company through successful growth in the UK market and entry into the very competitive US market. We were meeting brilliant & inspiring individuals who were building exciting internet enterprises of which we wanted to be a part. With the business thriving on both sides of the Atlantic , we didn’t want to miss out on the variety of new opportunities that the internet offered.

What makes our investment fund different?

Focussed on global internet media companies.
Driven by the team who invested in Cheapflights and built it into an international leader in travel-search on both sides of the Atlantic .
Cheapflights Ltd is a partner in this project offering the possibility of possible tie-ups with Cheapflights 5 million monthly unique users, and 3 million newsletter list. Moreover, when appropriate, we can draw on the wisdom of a fantastic and proven team at Cheapflights.
Offers significant leverage: strategic support, practical advice based on having ‘done it’, global PR, high level industry contacts, offices and business experience in USA , UK and soon continental Europe ,
Passion for usability, travel and the internet. We get excited by internet ideas and that's the reason we called the company Howzat Media.
We build partnerships…we do not put our money into ‘investments’.
