A Venture Practice
for What Comes Next
I’m Julio Salazar—strategist, builder, and cultural curator.
Over the last decade, I’ve launched and scaled ventures that challenge convention and build new foundations for how we live, work, and grow together.
Working across strategy, culture, and capital.
What I Do
Through my holding group, I steward a portfolio of ventures—each designed to create different types of capital:
financial, social, cultural, and intellectual.
Some are high-touch, others are high-leverage. All are built to move systems forward.
Learn. Think. Do.
