Currently mentoring founders at CIE-ORT

Mauricio Elhordoy

I help founders begin their journey — from idea to startup. Guiding, supporting, connecting.

02Manifesto

I work at the intersection of sales and technology — as comfortable talking to customers as getting hands-on with the product. I have real fun building with AI (I use Claude every day), because the best projects take the outcome seriously and enjoy the ride.
