About Gaston Montenegro
I’m from Argentina, where you learn to roll with the punches before you even know you’ll need to. Growing up in a place with big challenges and not much to work with taught me to spot opportunities and charge at them. That’s still my fuel—find the gap, fix it, keep moving.
For over 25 years, I’ve been deep in tech, hopping from the Americas to Europe, chasing ideas and sniffing out problems others overlook. I’ve kicked off eight companies—some soared, two got sold, and a few taught me how to dust myself off. The trick isn’t just a killer idea; it’s nailing the right problem, building something that clicks, and grinding through the chaos. Sometimes, I’ll whip up a quick mock-up in a day to test if a hunch has legs before diving in.
Now, I’m in the UK, steering two projects that have me fired up. Visionator helps businesses grow smarter and faster with tech that makes sense. Helpix uses AI to boost local shops, helping them connect with their communities like never before. Different gigs, same deal: see the problem, solve it, make things better.
Building stuff isn’t just about numbers for me. It’s the thrill of an idea that won’t let go, the obsession to make it real, and the hustle to pull it off. Whether brainstorming, leading, or plotting the next step, I’m all about creating something that matters. Got an idea or a problem to crack? Let’s talk and make some noise.
