Founder | AI-Native Entrepreneur
Manú is an entrepreneur with more than 20 years of experience in technology-driven businesses. He is the Founder of Drake Explorer, a Strategy, Business Development & Equity platform, and Co-Founder of AIO, the martech arm of Grupo 4all.
In 2025, he created Engaja, his first genuinely AI-Native initiative. An AI platform built for political campaigns, designed to attract, mobilize and convert support at scale — integrating audience acquisition, narrative, distribution, mobilization and real-time analysis.
Engaja was born from the understanding that political decisions and high-impact personal decisions — buying a home, choosing a health plan, changing careers — have much in common: they are emotionally complex, difficult to reverse, and require sophisticated behavioral analysis to drive impact.
"Today, everything I build starts AI-Native. Not because it is a trend, but because I understood that this is the most strategic decision a founder can make before day one."
