About Jorge Ulloa
Jorge Ulloa is a software engineer based in Bogotá, Colombia. Crunchbase and LinkedIn list a master's degree in software engineering from Universidad de Los Andes.
He is a co-founder and Chief Product and Technology Officer (CPTO) of Bold (bold.co). Bold is a Colombian financial company for small and medium-sized businesses. Its card payment system lets small merchants accept credit and debit card payments and see transaction details and sales reports in an app. His Bold co-founders are Ana Sandoval, Sergio Vergara, José Vélez and Enrique Ramírez. In his own LinkedIn post, Ulloa says Bold received the Forbes Colombia Entrepreneur of the Year 2025 award.
Before Bold he co-founded Transport Systems SAS, where he was CTO. It built software products for fintech and transportation clients. Crunchbase lists him as a founder of three organizations.
The public record of his angel investing is thin. The one deal we could confirm is Fina, a seed round announced in August 2026. Crunchbase lists him as an investor in that round, and press coverage names him among the angels. We found no public statements from him about his angel strategy, and no disclosed check sizes.
Fina is the AI round on the Lounge deals desk. It is a Venezuelan startup that sells cloud-based management software to small and medium businesses. LatamList reports that Fina will use the new funds to build financial and AI products, with a focus on credit for small and medium businesses. The round was $1M and was co-led by SquareOne Capital and Tomorrow Capital. We found no other AI investments by him in public sources.
Based on the one public deal, he backs seed-stage startups in Latin America that build financial and business software for small and medium businesses. This matches the market Bold serves. He has not published a thesis, preferred stage, sector list or check size, so none are stated here.
- Fina: Venezuelan software company for small and medium businesses covering inventory, sales, receivables and payables, and bank reconciliation. He joined its $1M seed round, announced August 2026.
