Bridgefy, Alumni Company with World-Changing Potential
Jorge Rios from Bridgefy will be joining alumni and buspreneurs for Accelerate: Nashville on June 8th.
Bridgefy was born on StartupBus North America 2014, where the team went on to place 2nd overall. The founders, Jorge, Diego, and Roberto, went on to raise enough pre-seed capital to quit their jobs, move to San Francisco, and work full-time on Bridgefy. In early May 2015, they released the Bridgefy app for both Android and iPhone, the fruits of their 12-month work after having raised seed capital in November 2014 and built a team of 7. Bridgefy is based in San Francisco, with development going on in Mexico City.
We established the core founding team, we got validation for our idea, and we met people who have helped us a lot throughout the company’s lifetime.
I got on the Bus looking for a new project and team, but I never thought I’d be working on something with so much world-changing potential. Don’t be afraid to be great. Just jump.
Before the bus, I thought it was this legendary contest where only hand-picked people participated and competed. After, I thought the exact same thing except that it’s not so far-fetched to think a Mexican team could win it someday soon.
