Ep. 41: The Ultimate Guide to Próspera - Co-Founder & CDO Gabriel Delgado Ayau's Vision to Supercharge Human Flourishing Through Technology & Entrepreneurship


Listen Later

Have you wondered what Próspera is all about?

Start with the founders. Gabriel Delgado Ayau is the co-founder and chief development officer (CDO) of the zero-to-one modern startup city in Honduras.

This is an extensive episode where we talk about Gabriel's past in Guatemala as a serial entrepreneur that founded 17 startups, learning about the challenges for entrepreneurs in Central America, and how his grandfather's teachings showed him a better way - radically improving the institutions towards a free society.

We talk about Próspera's founding history, the governance model of radical decentralization and regulatory flexibility combined with insurance risk assessment.

First and foremost, Próspera's goal is to propel economic development for Honduras by providing better institutions to live, work and play.

Consider this claim: if the bottom 75% of the world would implement the governance of the top 25%, the economic value created would be an additional $100 trillion (!).*

*In the episode, Gabriel mistakenly says $1tn, the true number is indeed $100tn.

And this is not all. The famous blogger Scott Alexander once said:

"To my biased eye, Próspera’s institutions aren’t just better than Honduran institutions. They might well be better than the institutions of America, Europe, and the rest of the developed world.

Some of their ideas - 3D property rights, modular construction, common law regulatory options, medical reciprocity laws - are genuinely innovative, the first in the world.

They’re things that intellectuals have been discussing for decades, and then suddenly some progressive-minded people get jurisdiction to try them out in and see if they work."

This episode is an extended riff and deep-dive into this quote and should give any entrepreneur reason to be curious enough.

It's almost hard to believe, which is why Gabriel and Niklas call on entrepreneurs to check it out for themselves, by joining the next couple of summits, taking place on the Caribbean paradise island of Roatan.
