In this episode, we sit down with Angel Cisneros, founder and CEO of Saptiva, an AI infrastucture and orchestration platform in LatAm. We explore his remarkable journey of bootstrapping Quiubas and exiting to Twillio, long before a robust ecosystem existed in Mexico, and his insights on how to position a startup for a successful acquisition. We dive deep into why he believes Latin America urgently needs its own AI infrastructure, how Saptiva is taking a decentralized, cloud-agnostic approach to building it, and why local investors still hesitate to back AI-focused startups. Angel’s perspective on AI, bootstrapping, scaling, and navigating exits offers a unique playbook for founders across the region.
