ABOUT JAVIER SEGOVIA

I\'m a founder, operator, and startup advisor with two decades of experience building companies at the intersection of digital platforms and the physical world — from last mile delivery and physical AI to smart mobility, climate tech, and the built environment.I’ve helped launch, fund, and scale dozens of startups — as a CxO, board director, strategic advisor, and angel investor. Along the way, I’ve shipped hundreds of millions of dollars in software and hardware products, scaled startups from 0 to 1 and 1 to 10, and led technology ventures from pre-seed to successful exits.As a founder helping founders, I understand what it takes to turn bold ideas into fundable companies, to operate ambitiously with limited resources, to find focus amid competing priorities, and to chart a path toward startup success. Through my advisory practice, Mirador Tech, I support ambitious teams across:🧭 Product-Market Fit — iterating across value proposition, go-to-market, and business model to make your product a must-have Fundraising Strategy — positioning for institutional capital and guiding investor conversations with clarity and confidence Unlocking Growth — applying the Silicon Valley growth playbook: data-driven insights, rapid experimentation, and bottleneck removal🧠 Product, UX & Tech Strategy — connecting user needs with technical execution to craft standout experiencesI work with deep tech startups shaping smarter, more sustainable cities, including: Last Mile & Smart Mobility — moving goods and people in the most cost- and carbon-efficient ways🤖 Physical AI & Autonomy — applying world models and embodied intelligence to real-world problems Built Environment & Climate — AI-driven building design, home electrification, and energy decarbonization Smart Devices & IoT — embedded tech delivering richer, healthier, human-centered experiencesI also mentor at MIT, Harvard, and Techstars, and previously served as an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Harvard Business School.If you’re an early-stage founder grinding toward traction — or a later-stage team at a strategic inflection point — let’s connect. I’d love to help you break through.
