Summary
After a successful career focused on software technology, I am now helping entrepreneurs in North and South America acquire lifechanging wealth by selling their companies while also helping others grow through acquisition and make valuable investments in Latin American software/IT service and BPO companies. In over 30 years in Silicon Valley, I cofounded several Silicon Valley startups including Accelerance, the premier authority on global software engineering. And I wrote the books “Software without Borders” and the business fable novel “Outsource or Else!” along the way. I've been in multiple executive roles and through three major acquisitions (Aspect Development, which sold to i2 for $9 Billion, Digital Market, sold to Agile Software for $75 Million and finally Accelerance in 2019), providing expertise beyond software development, to sales, marketing and global business strategy. Now it is your turn to have a successful exit… or to have us help you find a great company to buy in Latin America.
