What you likely need
Felipe is a high-impact current founder who co-built Rappi into a $3.5B-funded Latin American unicorn with thousands of employees across 32 countries. His primary opportunity now is either scaling Rappi toward a public exit or leveraging his founder credibility to back the next generation of LatAm startups. His public technical footprint (GitHub, Stack Overflow) is minimal, which is expected for an operator-CEO but limits his builder-community visibility.

- introsLeverage your Sequoia partnership (since 2016) to access their global portfolio for Rappi's enterprise and cross-border expansion.
- positioningPublish a public essay or podcast appearance on building a unicorn in Latin America — your story is underrepresented in English-language founder media.
- hiringWith 4,479 employees and rapid YoY growth, prioritize hiring a world-class CFO and Chief People Officer to prepare for a potential public offering.
- wellbeingAfter 11+ years building Rappi, invest deliberately in founder peer groups (e.g., YPO, Endeavor) to sustain energy and avoid isolation at the top.
- tacticalConsider building a minimal public GitHub or technical blog presence to attract top engineering talent who research founders before joining.
