Founder
Felipe Martinez
Chief Executive OfficerEconomist, MBA
Felipe Martinez founded Pentos with the conviction that sound outcomes are built through judgment, discipline and steady execution. His perspective is shaped by training in economics and experience across corporate finance, commercial lending, business operations and cross-border business. That background informs the way Pentos allocates capital, evaluates acquisitions and approaches advisory work: with careful attention to risk, a practical understanding of how businesses operate, and a preference for durable value over short-term activity. He leads the firm as steward of its direction, standards and decision-making discipline.
