Welcome to Tech Talents Pro Weekly!

Before we move on to the usual weekly talent moves, I’d like to share something new: Tech Talents Base — the most comprehensive, real-time platform tracking LatAm’s top stealth founders, emerging startups, and promising tech talent.

Built with the feedback and support of leading VC firms, recruiters, and service providers, Tech Talents Base has been in the works for several months. The goal: to help you gain a competitive edge and spot opportunities before anyone else. It also serves as the perfect complement to the weekly emails included in Tech Talents Pro, the premium version of this newsletter.

Here’s what you can do inside the platform:

  1. Discover Founders: Talents to Watch, stealth, and announced startup leaders. Use smart filters by experience, specialty, and location — and see the rationale behind every tag.

  2. Track Startups: Monitor the headcount growth of early-stage companies across LatAm, a simple but powerful way to measure traction.

  3. Save Favorites: Keep your top talents and startups in one place with “Favorites,” so you can track them effortlessly over time.

Here’s a demo video of the platform:

Tech Talents Base is included in the Pro subscription, with no extra cost. As a reminder, here’s everything that comes with Pro:

  1. Tech Talents Base: The most comprehensive, real-time database tracking LatAm's top stealth founders, emerging startups, and promising tech talents

  2. Weekly Talent Movements: Get to promising founders before other investors do

  3. Talents to Watch: Identify high-potential talent in potential career transitions
