Luis Rivera is a serial founder and technology executive with 10+ years leading product and engineering teams across fintech, wellness and startup ecosystems from Madrid. As co-founder/CEO of ETFmatic he built a proprietary tech-legal stack, scaled to €30M+ AUM and thousands of customers, then moved into CTO and board roles to commercialize platform and API models. He now runs Riverlan, building open-source and blockchain-driven services, and has repeatedly launched and iterated products that blend guerrilla marketing with rapid feature cadence. A mentor and ecosystem builder, he co-founded Tetuan Valley, Startupbootcamp Madrid and Okuri Ventures, helping design accelerator programs that produced hundreds of alumni and funded startups. Luis combines hands-on coding and product design (mobile apps with 250k+ downloads) with investor-facing leadership and a pragmatic data-driven approach to shutdown experiments when they don’t move the needle. Known jokingly as a "Former Blade Runner," he favors tinkering until ideas behave like real products and then duct-taping them into scale.
