Marcus Segui is the founder of Tintico, a luggage company he started in 2015 that just finished a successful Kickstarter campaign that raised $100,000 in support from over 527 backers. His background does NOT scream luggage entrepreneur, or maybe it does… Marcus started his career in finance in New York City, then quit to take a year off to travel and learn Spanish. He settled in Bogota, Colombia and ultimately launched a real estate company there that was backed by Colombia’s largest private equity company. He’s an entrepreneur well versed in international business and what it takes to launch a company abroad. Once he finally went from knowing what he didn’t want to do to knowing what he did want to do next, he established himself as a full-time entrepreneur.
