My grandfather was a Berliner. He had to leave for Bolivia because of the war.
Two generations later, I've come back.

I landed in my grandfather's city 19 months ago, not as a tourist, but with a mission. After 16+ years building companies in Latin America — a region that mostly looks to Silicon Valley for inspiration — I came here to build a bridge.
A bridge between Europe and LATAM.

And Berlin has welcomed me, my wife, and my three daughters with open arms. This city embraces diversity. It's a place where, as a startup founder, I feel like I'm in my own personal Disneyland — an amusement park of ideas, connections, and relentless energy.

This week, that feeling became a powerful movement.

I was in the room at The Delta Campus — my second home in Berlin — for an invite-only event to kick off "Berlin auf die Eins" (#BAD1). A campaign to make Berlin the #1 startup hub in Europe.

Listening to Julian Teicke, the mayor Kai Wegner, and founders like Jan Oberhauser (n8n)- pretty huge in LATAM- , Daniel Khachab (Choco), and Marius Meiners (Peec AI), the energy was electric.

This isn't just talk. It's a commitment.
Berlin has the raw ingredients:
→ 250,000 university students
→ 30,000 researchers
→ The powerhouse of the German economy
→ A culture that pushes you to succeed

But for Berlin to truly become #1, it needs to build more bridges. Not just within Europe, but to the world. To regions like Latin America, bursting with talent and opportunity.

That's why I'm here. To connect these worlds.

As Julian said, the goal is to turn our collective ideas into concrete action. The mayor has committed to listening. Now, it's our turn to speak up.
I'm all in. Let's show the world why Berlin is the place to build the future.

Share your ideas on what needs to change.

Let's turn this city's incredible potential into a reality.
Let's get Berlin to #1. 🚀

Two founders. Two companies that changed travel forever. Ten years apart.


In 2016, I had the privilege of meeting Brian Chesky— the man who turned a spare room into a global movement. Airbnb didn't just disrupt hospitality. It made the world feel smaller, more human, more connected.

Last week, I sat down with Johannes Reck, co-founder of GetYourGuide — the company that did the same for travel experiences. Built from Berlin. Scaled globally. A European champion that proved you don't need Silicon Valley to change the world.

Both of them understood something I've believed my whole life:
Tourism is one of the most powerful forces on the planet.
It creates jobs. It moves economies. It opens minds. And when technology amplifies it — the impact is extraordinary.

I didn't arrive at this belief through a business school case study.
I grew up in it. My parents built their first hotel in Bolivia before I was born. I spent my early years organizing events for thousands of people, learning that hospitality is, at its core, about human connection.
That foundation never left me.

After 16+ years building startups across Latin America, I'm now in Berlin — the city my grandfather was forced to leave during the war — building BridgeLATAM. A platform to connect Europe's innovation with LATAM's talent, markets, and untapped potential.

And this week, I'm at ITB Berlin — the world's leading travel trade show, celebrating its 60th anniversary.
It feels like everything is connected.

Two icons of travel tech. A lifetime of passion for this industry. And a mission to build bridges between two regions that have so much to offer each other.

If you're at ITB and believe in the power of tourism to connect worlds — let's meet.

Let's build together.
