What you likely need
Aldo is a serial founder and early-stage operator with multiple active companies and a growing angel investing practice. His strongest near-term opportunity is raising a proper seed round for Apprecio and formalizing his investor identity — he has the network and deal flow but hasn't yet structured either into a scalable vehicle. Leaning into his Platanus Visiting Partner role and his YC-adjacent network could unlock both.
Are these your current priorities?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
- fundraisingFormalize a seed raise for Apprecio — the 50,000 convenience store traction is a compelling hook for LATAM-focused funds like Kaszek or Ignia.
- introsUse your Zolvo / YC Spring 2026 connection to get warm intros to YC partners and alumni who back LATAM B2B SaaS founders.
- tacticalStructure your angel activity into a small SPV or micro-fund via AngelList or Sydecar so your checks are trackable and you can co-invest with Platanus more systematically.
- positioningPublish a short essay or LinkedIn post about your thesis on LATAM convenience-store tech to build a public investor brand that matches your operator experience.
- hiringApprecio currently has only 3 employees — prioritize hiring a head of sales or growth to convert the 50,000-store footprint into revenue at scale.
- introsLeverage your Founding Member role at District to source deal flow and co-investors for both Apprecio and your angel portfolio.
- tacticalIf the AI revenue debugger agent at your stealth startup reaches an MVP, consider a Product Hunt launch to validate demand and build early waitlist momentum.
