153. Miami And The LATAM Connection. A Story Of Networking.

Episode Notes

Today we’re joined by a guest who’s built his career at the intersection of Latin American entrepreneurship, tech, and global opportunity,  Matias Barbero.

Matias is an entrepreneur, investor, and ecosystem builder. He is the Founder of 401, a Miami-based platform investing in bold ideas and venture funds, accelerating high-potential startups, and connecting Latin America with the U.S. through a strong cross-border community of founders, investors, and operators. 

His work is all about connecting ecosystems, building bridges, and unlocking opportunities,  especially between Latin America and the U.S., whether that’s through mentorship, investment, community programming, or hands-on operational leadership.

In this episode, we’ll dive into Matias’s journey: what he’s doing today, the reasons he believes Latin American founders should think globally, especially toward the U.S., and whether there’s truly something special about the bond between these regions.
