Lorenzo de Leo. Invite me to speak

Operator-investor

I back AI-native founders and run my own fund the same way.

Managing Director at ENYA Ventures, a pre-seed fund for Spanish-speaking Latin America. Before investing: a PhD in pure mathematics, aerospace tech transfer, and nine years building startups at Rokk3r in Miami. I speak and write about AI-native companies — the thing I am building myself.

Why me on this topic

Most AI talks describe other people's companies. I show mine.

ENYA's research, meeting prep, relationship memory, and first drafts run on AI agents I direct. The system isn't finished — I'm building it in public, which is exactly what makes it a useful case study. In every talk I show what works today, what's still manual, and what broke on the way here.
