Hi there, I am Jorge.

Founding / Scaling / Selling / Integrating

I co-founded a company in Seattle, scaling it up to have more than 100 employees and a presence in 4 countries. We then sold the company to a global consulting company and integrated it into their structure.

After serving as Global VP of Creativity at Xebia and other executives roles, I'm now stepping into a new chapter—taking a sabbatical to focus on my family, myself, and investing on projects that truly excite me .

30 Things I Learned from Founding to Selling Our Company | Ebook

I'm working on an e-book that's all about my rollercoaster ride with 47 Degrees - from the crazy early days of getting it off the ground to scaling it up, selling it, and then figuring out how to fit into the big corporate world. It's packed with the good, the bad, and the ugly of everything I've learned (and messed up) along the way.
