Fundador y #CEO de #Startup MéxicoManaging Partner en Dux-CapitalGuest Professor en #IPADE Business SchoolUno de los nuevos tiburones en la temporada actual de #Shark Tank MéxicoMarcus ha estado involucrado en el ecosistema emprendedor desde 1996 y a fungido como CEO para las empresa Mexico.com, Simitel, Peer Inc., y Abdeo Medical - Innovamedi.También ha sido director de Entrepreneurship Project de Centro, director y fundador de Wayra México, y director Latin America de Startup Labs.

Marcus Dantus launched his first tech startup in 1993, selling email addresses through a portal that he hosted on the domain Mexico.com. Born in Mexico City, Marcus studied Media Communications at the University of Pennsylvania, but his career quickly switched to technology when a friend introduced him to the Internet. Since then, Marcus never looked back. He founded a telecommunications company, acted as CEO of a medical device business, was on the founding team of Wayra Mexico, and finally developed and launched Startup Mexico, where he acts as CEO. In this episode, I sat down with Marcus to talk about how he got started in entrepreneurship in Mexico, what it was like to develop a cross-border startup in the early-2000s, how new technologies like blockchain will help LatAm, and what’s next for the Mexican entrepreneurship ecosystem. Selling email addresses on Mexico.com Marcus built his first website in 1993. He quickly realized there was a market in registering and selling generic domains in Spanish after a company paid him $20K for the website ‘andale.com.’ He built a “portal of portals” on Mexico.com, which sold email addresses that were linked to personalized domains. After registering and selling 800 domains, Mexico.com received a US$8M investment from Silicon Valley, even before Marcus knew Silicon Valley existed. The dot com bubble burst just three weeks later. Lessons learned from founding Wayra Mexico Marcus went on to lead two more companies before ‘retiring’ from entrepreneurship to teach in Mexico. Soon after, he received a call from Telefonica to lead Wayra Mexico, and said yes. Marcus’ experience at Wayra helped him create Startup Mexico. Among these lessons, Marcus cites the mistake of giving startups money right off the bat and trying to accelerate a startup in a bureaucratic environment. Building the “Disneyland for entrepreneurs” in seven Mexican cities After leaving Wayra, Marcus set out to transform a warehouse in Mexico City into the “Disneyland for Entrepreneurs,” with backing from the Mexican government. Startup Mexico is an incubator program that provides support, resources, and mentorship for early-stage startups. In many cases, these startups receive little to no investment from the start, though they may eventually receive funding from Startup Mexico’s investment arm, Dux Capital. The program is now available in Mexico City, Merida, León, Querétaro, Nuevo Laredo, Oaxaca, and an office is opening in Guadalajara. Opportunities in the Mexican startup ecosystem Marcus is bullish on the Mexican entrepreneurship ecosystem, but Mexico still has a long way to go. He sees a need for a culture change in a country where failure and success are punished equally. However, Marcus is confident that technologies like the blockchain, big data, automation, and the IoT will change Mexico’s future. Dux Capital invests in clean energy, retail, and tech innovation to help bring those disruptive technologies to Mexico. Marcus was one of the pioneers of the Mexican tech ecosystem and he continues to lead the charge today. To see more of Marcus’ work, check him out on the next episode of Shark Tank Mexico! Listen to the rest of the episode to hear more about Marcus’ journey from Mexico City to Silicon Valley and back, and how he is making a difference in his home country’s tech ecosystem.

Neil Cohen, long time friend, trusted advisor and marketing consultant extraordinaire joined us recently to talk about his thoughts on the marketing landscape and emerging tech trends.   Neil keeps himself very busy and entrenched with the latest innovations in marketing and technology by serving as an advisor to multiple startups as well as international accelerators, such as Parallel 18 and Startup Mexico, as well as teaching digital marketing as a professor at SF State.   Neil’s seen the evolution of the ad-tech and marketing landscape since the early days when digital marketing was a new comer fighting for media budgets to today’s world of programmatic ad exchanges and now digital ad spending is predicted to surpass television spending this year. Budgets have been slowly slipping from traditional television and print budgets, but still somewhat slow to gain traction even as most of us spend most of our time on our mobile phones.

Marcus Dantus is CEO of Startup Mexico.  Startups, entrepreneurs, venture capital -- it's all happening and growing in Mexico.  Marcus discusses the unique opportunities and challenges facing entrepreneurs and investors in Mexico.  He also provides the point of view of Mexicans on the election of Donald Trump, and Mexico's path forward. -- In the Something Venture podcast, Silicon Valley insider Kent Lindstrom explores the reality behind the headlines, as he sits down with the people who are shaping the way we view the world online and beyond.
