Decelera

From an idea that many doubted to the global community we are today, Decelera has stayed true to our belief: sometimes slowing down is the fastest way to grow. It's always a pleasure seeing the support coming from so many people: Founders, Experience Makers, Investors, Partners and the team behind the dream. Thank you all for what we've accomplished and be ready for what the future holds for us!

We finish October with our heart full of memories! Thank you to everyone who has been with us at the start of the month during #DeceleraMexico2024 in Riviera Maya, all our Alumni on both sides of the ocean who work day after day in their vision and to those people involved in keeping Decelera more alive than ever. Every smile and every connection we are part of really makes a difference, can’t wait to start announcing new invested startups to our community!

#DeceleraMexico2024 couldn’t be possible without our partners! Year after year and program after program we try to surround ourselves with the best partners in different areas, like location, perks, tools and many more. Each one of them plays a role in our founders experience, that’s why we set the bar high. Thanks to all #DeceleraMexico2024 partners who have been by our side, we hope these relationships continue to grow with time!

I’m excited to share that a few weeks ago, I had the privilege of participating in Decelera Mexico 2024, one of the best experiences of my life.

🚀 A couple weeks ago I came back from an incredible experience with Decelera – more than just a program, it was an opportunity to reconnect with who we are, beyond what we do. 💡 Representing Taxo , Jacobo Moreno , David Paredes Gortaire and I dove into Decelera’s focus on sustainable growth and purpose-driven leadership, reminding me that success isn’t just about business milestones but the strength of our vision and values. 🎯 The Program's unique “Breathe. Focus. Grow.” framework was especially transformative; taking the time to Breathe allowed us to gain perspective, Focus helped us realign our mission, and Grow reinforced our commitment to scaling with intention. I believe this framework is a game-changer for any founder aiming to lead with purpose. 🤝 The journey was even more special as I got to bond with my co-founders on a deeper level, sharing not only our ambitions but our motivations and personal drivers. From intense workshops to those late-night, fun conversations, we returned with a renewed sense of unity. 💙 A huge thank you to the amazing Decelera team ( Marcos Martin Larrañaga , Valentina VillaGomez , Lorenzo Hurtado de Saracho , Raquel Polgrabia , Andrea Luna , Sandra Sánchez Atienza , Miguel Quintana, Ph.D. , Alex Rojas , Kamil Saab Dávila , Carlota Lechere , Marina Bestué , Mar Reyes , Emilio Fernández Lezcano , and more) for orchestrating such a unique experience and for all the thoughtful guidance along the way. 💫 To the incredible founders and experience makers ( Sebastian Baquero , Bruno Ramos Berho , Evaristo Babé , José de la Luz L. , Antonio R. , Álvaro Carrasco Arriaza , Juan Cristobal Constain , Melina Cruz Villafaña , Marlene Molero Suárez , Emilia Gonzalez , Eyal Shats , Beth Susanne , Marinella Piñate , Rizala Carrington, Nicolas Bodek , Alejandro López , Gennaro Bifulco , Vincent Speranza , Shadi Yazdan, MBA , Tim Varner , Gabriela Salazar T. , Ryan Stroker , Danilo Tamelini and more amazing people) I had the pleasure to meet – many of whom have already become friends – thank you for the inspiration, the insights, and the camaraderie. Here’s to the start of something truly meaningful! Lastly, my deepest gratitude to our fantastic team at Taxo, who kept everything running smoothly while David, Jay and I were away. Your hard work made this experience possible, and we’re beyond grateful for it. #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #PurposeDriven #Decelera #Taxo

Just got back from an incredible 10 days with Decelera Ventures in Riviera Maya 🌴 , and wow—what a ride! One day, I’m pitching to top investors by the beach 🌊, and the next, I’m getting pitched by a group of super talented kids from a school in Playa del Carmen. Talk about full-circle moments! The energy, passion, and creativity at this program were beyond inspiring. It wasn’t just about business, but also about human connection, growth, and collaboration. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to connect with such brilliant, like-minded people—founders, VCs, and even the next generation of entrepreneurs. The program pushed us to grow both personally and professionally, with a perfect blend of mental and physical challenges, insightful workshops, pitch competitions, and deep connections. The focus on balancing impact and innovation was truly inspiring. A huge shoutout to the Decelera Ventures team for making all of this possible. The trust, friendships, and networks we built are something I’ll carry with me. Marcos Martin Larrañaga without your vision this wouldn't exist, thank you!
