10. José Inesta - Co-founder and CEO at Pixelatl

How does a swimmer with a computer engineering degree go from designing computer chips to boosting the South American animation industry? Today's guest José Inesta took an unusual path on his way to helping create an eco-system of talent development in Mexico City. This is a great story because no matter which country you are in, the type of organization that José and his brother have built in Pixelatl looks through a different lens at not only talent development in animation, but IP, studio, and business development. We hope you enjoy this conversation with José Inesta.
