Our motto, Dream. Design. Develop. was inspired by our founder and CEO Marcos Mena-Brena’s own experience starting a company from the ground up. Like many entrepreneurs, he was full of inspiration and drive, but was hindered by technical setbacks on the road to the first prototype for SchooLinks, an education based startup he co-founded. After overcoming these technical challenges, his startup later won an incubator program (Capital Factory) and secured funding ($1.5 Million USD).
As VP of Technology for UC Berkeley’s Entrepreneurship Association, Marcos served as a mentor to entrepreneurs launching their startups, and helped them gain the skills and resources needed to plan, design and launch their products online.
“Our passion is to help ambitious and talented entrepreneurs build their visions from the ground up” says Marcos, who carries the same commitment into client work.

From engineering and design to digital marketing, we provide our clients with the tools to grow and succeed.
