Jose M. Puga

As the CEO and Co-Founder of Imaginario AI, I focus on enhancing video search, curation, and transformation through AI-powered creativity and automation. With 15 years of experience in business development and product roles for media and tech companies across international markets, I have a proven track record of building new business ventures independently and with partners like production companies, electronic manufacturers, digital incumbents, telcos, VOD platforms, publishers, and startups. As a founder-in-residence at Entrepreneur First in London and Berlin, I learned valuable lessons leading to the creation of Imaginario AI. Our company was later accepted into the Techstars Comcast NBC Universal LIFT Labs accelerator, raising $1M from VCs and strategic angels. My interests span creative AI, machine learning, premium content, consumer platform businesses, startups, private equity, SaaS, and AR/VR technologies. I hold an MBA from INSEAD and a Master's degree in media management and entrepreneurship from the University of Warwick.
