Investing in "Unsexy Businesses": Finding Innovation in Latin America

This episode is all about innovation in Latin America!

We're chatting about the new and exciting businesses in Latin America through the lens of venture capital, so I invited Daniel Lloreda and he is a managing partner at H20 capital, a early-stage venture capital fund with operations in Miami, Mexico & Colombia.

We talked about innovative startups you might not have heard of - what I like to call "unsexy businesses" - those that don't get the big headlines on TechCrunch but are solving real life problems with truly innovative solutions.

Also, why businesses are choosing countries closer to the US more specifically Latin America and and why expats from Latin America choose to start their companies in the US.
