Stop struggling offshore, nearshore is 🔥
You've been around the block as a founder. You’ve faced agencies that bill by the hour but never commit, struggled to turn your ideas into an actual product, and wrestled with the complexities of building and managing a software team.
Outsourcing to Europe or India has left you dealing with quality issues, cultural mismatches, and inconvenient time zones. And let's not even mention the skyrocketing salaries in the US and Canada.
Scaling your team feels like an uphill battle. We understand your pain, and this is why we exist. For 14 years we’ve partnered with founders and companies to build and scale their teams
from the heart of Colombia.
