Startup CEOs that think big!
It’s been more than a year since I’ve written an update on the TropicalGringo Portfolio, the five startups where I am an advisor and shareholder. There is really big news from all of these companies from multimillion dollar rounds raised to Silicon Valley and other US investment activity. Though there is a lot of work to be done to advance the Colombian startup ecosystem as a whole, these companies and their founders join a growing list of Colombian startups that are incredible role models for the future startups in this country.
A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to speak on a panel about Latin American investment thanks to a gracious invitation by the Los Andes University. I answered a number of questions about investment in Latin America compared to other regions as well as how Colombia stacks up in comparison to other countries in Latin America.
