Rodrigo Figueras

I'm an Entrepreneurship student from Mexico City. After attending my first Startup Weekend and being the national finalist in a contest to work with Sir Richard Branson, I've decided tech entrepreneurship is my true calling. It might not be the easy way, but there's no point in working towards a dream that is not your own :) Since then, I've participated in the Global Entrepreneurship Week, the Social Entrepreneurship Week, and Startup Bus 2013, where my team and I created Emplify.us, an online platform where amateur freelancers can begin to get professional experience (currently inactive). I'm currently learning to code, the lean startup movement, and design.
