Vicente Gracia connects with U-Start CEO and now leads U-Start in Chile

Vicente Gracia learned about the hardships of being an entrepreneur after having spent some time working in an entrepreneurial online business in South Africa.

Just before graduating of a master’s degree in a Swedish Entrepreneurship School he learned about U-Start and the work they do for helping entrepreneurs and start-ups connect with investors, which led him to contact U-Start’s CEO where he was presented with the opportunity to help Chilean businesses in getting investors for their projects.

U-Start arrived to Chile a few months ago and since then connects international investors with professional entrepreneurs in the region.

“my main job in this initial stage is to explore who are the main players in the early stage ecosystem, understand applicable law for start-ups and early stage investors” – Vicente Gracia

As of today, Vicente is collaborating and working with top business accelerators, incubators and universities with focus on entrepreneurial training and research centers in the digital field to develop U-Start network in Chile. He also advises his clients (investors) on specific deals in Chile, helping them look for opportunities that will benefit them.
