🚀 Draper Founder Spotlight on #StartupSounds! 🚀 In our latest release, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Juan José Porras Martínez, the #DraperFounder behind Coline Data! 🎙️ Check out the full conversation on Spotify: https://lnkd.in/djF5Kud4 YouTube: https://lnkd.in/dWGpcTvq Connect with Juan on LinkedIn to learn more about his journey and follow the journey of Coline! FROM THE LAB TO THE MARKET 🎧 As he puts it, the idea came to life while he and his co-founders were immersed in a research center at their university, where they noticed a thriving ecosystem of startups in various fields. Inspired by peers who were launching ventures in medicine and data analysis, they realized they had the same technological knowledge and expertise in data, sensors, and AI to tackle significant problems in Chile. 🌟 THE COMPLEXITIES OF SCALING Large-scale mining companies often hesitate to adopt new technologies, despite their potential. The risks of implementing something new can be high, and even a minor failure could lead to significant losses. That's why many companies remain cautious, limiting innovation to specific assets. 📉 Juan's team developed an automated data analysis system that provides alerts and insights directly to mining companies' preferred channels—whether that's email, mobile, or dashboards. But here's the real challenge: scaling this system across thousands of assets in various work areas. 🔐 FROM ENTREPRENEURS TO TECH FOUNDERS Having grown up in a family of entrepreneurs, he witnessed firsthand the challenges and sacrifices that come with running a traditional business. Long hours, financial uncertainty.... ❌ But everything changed when Juan discovered the world of startups. 🚀 Despite the risks being even higher, he saw the potential for immense scalability and growth: with the same effort, he could build something far more impactful, he took the plunge into the startup world. His journey was further fueled by the incredible opportunities available in Chile's startup ecosystem, particularly the support from Corfo. 🇨🇱 SCALABILITY IS THE BIGGEST HURDLE OF AI Maintaining over 90% accuracy in AI systems is a non-negotiable in the industry, but achieving this level of precision on a massive scale can be computationally costly. This makes scalability one of the biggest hurdles in deploying AI solutions effectively. ⚙️ THE IMPORTANCE OF FOLLOWING UP Juan also touched on a critical yet often overlooked aspect of networking: the follow-up: it's not enough to just exchange business cards. After attending events, he dedicated time to reach out to his new contacts via email, which turned out to be incredibly effective. This simple action led to responses from everyone he reached out to! 📨 #DraperFounderSpotlight #TechInnovation #Entrepreneurship #DraperStartupHouse #StartupJourney #Innovation

I recently caught up with Hugo Garduño Ortega, co-founder of Verqor. I first met him in 2018 when Verqor joined the 1st cohort of the 100+ Accelerator. The company has pivoted multiple times since then, and the founders, Hugo Garduño Ortega and Valentina Rogacheva have learned a lot. In 2018, Verqor was nothing more than a pitch deck and a dream: to help Mexican farmers get financing. The company is now scaling. Two things I want to highlight: 1. Startups can be built anywhere 2. Startup "rules" are meant to be broken Verqor is based in Mexico, which is not the biggest startup hub. But to build this company, you have to be on the ground with your customers. Is it tougher to build a startup outside of a major hub? Sure. You'll have less access to talent, capital, customers, partners, etc. But it is possible. There's no formula for success. But we wish there was! This leads to blindly following what has supposedly worked for others. Verqor forged their own path and did things differently. ➡ Rule: Don't start a company without industry expertise or past founder experience. That makes perfect sense! But if everyone followed that a lot of great startups wouldn't be created. Hugo and Valentina were not ag experts, but they had a passion for solving a huge pain point. ➡ Rule: Don't work with big companies early, they're too slow. Big companies are slow compared to startups. But the 100+ Accelerator was the perfect "vehicle" for collaboration between Verqor and AB InBev. ➡ Rule: Don't raise strategic / corporate venture capital, it's a bad signal early on. I've heard this countless times. Meanwhile Verqor raised their last financing round from Yara Growth Ventures, the CVC of Yara International ASA (a crop nutrition and ag company from Norway). ➡ Rule: Don't build a "big" MVP, it's too complicated and takes too long to develop. This is definitely scary. Founders love over-building. Verqor had to build a fairly complex MVP b/c they realized they had to integrate all stakeholders in the supply chain. They couldn't just lend money to farmers. They had to bring in input manufacturers, so farmers could buy inputs through the app. They had to bring in off-takers/crop buyers, so when they purchased the crops (through the app), Verqor could recover their loan first. It took Hugo and Valentina a lot of research, experimentation and learning to realize that their true MVP had to be complex; but it's actually beautifully simple in that complexity. ➡ Rule: Don't marry your co-founder. 🤣 OK, I don't know if this is a rule, but startups built by couples are rare. I've heard VCs say "I won't invest in a founding team that's together, it's too risky." Meanwhile Hugo and Valentina have been together and building Verqor for 6 years! I love the story of Verqor b/c it's the story of true founders, finding a problem, digging deep, stumbling, pivoting, persevering and figuring things out. Verqor is now scaling and having a real impact on farmers' lives.
