About this listen

In today’s episode, we are joined by Frank Licea, founder and CTO at Howdy, the service that allows US tech companies to hire and manage software developers in Latin America. Beginning as a Y-Combinator students, Frank Licea and his co-founder, CEO Jacqueline Samira, have grown Howdy from an idea to a $105M valuation. In this episode, we discuss how Frank and his co-founder built Howdy’s network of software engineers, how Y-Combinator influenced his startup process, and what insights the Y-Combinator experience gave Howdy and Frank. Stick around to the end to hear what Y-Combinator thinks is the biggest cause of company deaths, and it’s not a bad business strategy.
