Helping startups connect with the right investors and growth opportunities.

Mentor & connector


About me

I believe great startups rarely fail because of a lack of ambition. More often, they struggle because they don't have access to the right people, the right feedback, or the right opportunities at the right time.
For the past years, I've been working at the intersection of founders, investors, accelerators, and innovation ecosystems. Every week, I evaluate startups, mentor founders, and collaborate with organizations that support entrepreneurship across Europe, Latin America, and the United States.
As Head of Mentoring at BIC Euronova (Málaga), recognized by the Financial Times & Statista as Spain's #1 startup hub in 2026, I've mentored more than 50 startups, led international partnerships, and worked alongside founders from different industries.
One of the most valuable parts of my work has been evaluating startup potential. I've assessed more than 100 startups, helping founders strengthen their positioning, product, business model, and investor readiness. This experience has also allowed me to identify recurring patterns behind successful startups.
Over the last two years, I've helped startups to raise more than $800,000 in funding (pre-seed/ seed). Beyond fundraising, I've helped founders refine their strategy, prepare for investor meetings, expand internationally, and build meaningful relationships within the innovation ecosystem.
Today, my mission is simple: help ambitious founders, VCs and innovation organizations discover opportunities faster, connect with the right people, and accelerate growth through strategic mentoring, ecosystem building, and practical execution.
Whether you're a founder looking for guidance, an investor searching for promising startups, or an organization building entrepreneurial ecosystems, I'd be happy to connect.

These experiences were mainly based on the ownership of the product development, creation of roadmaps, coordination with different work teams (IT, data, etc), having constant conversations with customers/users to get their most important needs down to concrete requirements; as well as managing efficient communication with the different stakeholders involved in the development of the product.
