'How to Succeed in Central America by a 22-Year-Old Business Dev Manager and Angel Investor' startups startupadvice

While you may think that finding success in business development, especially as a Latin American, requires years and years of grinding, that doesn't have to be the case. Just take the example of Carlos Jimenez Castrillo. The Costa Rican is already the Business Development Manager of the international start-up Firstbase.

However, Jimenez proved this isn't always the case. After graduating, he took a university course in Computer Science in Costa Rica. At the same, he began getting internships at Canadian startups where he helped founders expand into Latin America. "I decided I was relatively young and didn't want to work for someone," he says. "So, I jumped in and created my own startup." Along with several other Costa Rican founders, Jimenez created a platform that could connect Central American companies with promising investors in the US and Europe.Jimenez understood that business success wasn't just about launching a successful company — it was also about networking and personal branding.
