About Juan Jugo

I have extensive experience in launching new businesses, managing improvement projects, general management, strategic planning, administration and control, financial planning, and more. Over the past 12 years, I have advised countless entrepreneurs, mostly Latin Americans, on the launch, development, and optimization of their companies and businesses in the United States across a wide variety of economic sectors, which has given me invaluable experience in this field. As an engineer with an MBA and countless specialized courses from internationally renowned universities, I have received solid training in various areas such as administration and finance, business logistics, quality improvement, reengineering, processes, project management, marketing and sales, market research, and other business-related areas. My experience as a consultant has allowed me to develop the necessary skills to assist companies of different sizes in navigating the right path to success in the competitive North American market.
