About us

Heradio is a purpose-driven founder, mentor, and survivor. After facing and overcoming metastatic cancer, he created the first version of Hakim as a way to rebuild, not just for himself, but for others navigating emotional and entrepreneurial uncertainty.

With over 20 years of experience mentoring founders across Latin America and the U.S., he is also the author of Business from Within, a book that explores inner clarity as a growth strategy.

Heradio believes that survival and purpose, when aligned, can transform how we build.

Fernando builds things that are meant to last.

For a few years, he pushed the limits of what industrial automation can do at scale, but felt a disconnect between technical achievement and personal purpose. Hakim became the place where those two finally met.

His calm presence, obsession with architecture, and quiet refusal to settle for surface-level answers drive the way Hakim thinks.

He believes the real breakthroughs in tech will come from building with empathy, not ego.

Luigi has lived both sides of entrepreneurship, the bold launches and the painful rebuilds.

After founding several companies, he learned that clarity and resilience matter more than hype.

Hakim is his way of making those things available to every founder, not just the lucky or the well-connected.

He brings energy, emotional depth, and a fierce belief in those who keep showing up, especially when things get hard.
