We are a data and ideas lab based in Bogotá, with partnerships across the world. We combine analytical rigor, territorial vision and intellectual curiosity to build livable futures.

Natalia Sánchez Herrera
Fundadora · Directora Ejecutiva
I have spent 15 years developing solutions across sectors as different as the arts, finance and digital. Today, driven by the urgency of the ecological challenge, I work to question the assumptions behind our decisions about territory and society, and to build new answers through creativity and proposition. I believe the harmonious future we seek cannot be improvised: it is built with rigor, imagination and a perspective that does not separate the human from the living world.

Samantha Alfonso Velandia
Co-fundadora · Directora de Investigación
I am an economist and have spent 8 years working in data analysis and research. What drives me most is experimental economics: the idea that models should challenge the rationality assumption, not reproduce it. Today I apply that same rigor to decisions about the natural world and the communities that inhabit it, because I believe they deserve the same analytical sophistication as any other domain.
