Building between Latin America & the U.S. gets ugly fast.

Markets move differently. Customers expect different things. Teams cross borders & cultures. The pitch deck leaves that part out.

This Ugly Talk puts it back in. 3 Latino founders will share the false starts, hard calls, & mistakes behind the growth.

Why you should be in this room.
Hear what building across Latin America & the U.S. actually takes.

Learn from failed ideas, wrong turns, & hard calls.

Get specific lessons from founders still in the thick of it.

See how other builders handle different markets, customers, teams, & cultures.

Meet founders who understand the friction because they live it too.

What's on the table.
The version that missed the pitch deck. The false starts, setbacks, & calls they wish they could take back.

Decisions made without a clean answer. The bets they placed before the outcome was clear.

Building across borders. The real friction behind different markets, teams, customers, & cultures.

Lessons earned the hard way. What helped after the original plan stopped working.

The next hard call. What they would do differently if they started again.
