Juan co founded Inselligence with a laser focus on transforming the way companies execute on their commercial systems. The firm's strategic decisions, including the architecture first methodology and the institutional durability principle, reflect his investment management discipline applied to a services and software firm.

He is based in Miami and is the firm's primary executive contact for client relationships in Latin America, for partnership conversations, and for the firm's strategic posture in the institutional investment community.
