Our History
A company born from a passion for Latin America
Over 20 years ago, our Swiss founders, Daniel Breitenmoser and Ulrich Hinterberger, turned their passion for Latin America into a business built on trust and local connections. In 2010, they chose Colombia as Ongresso’s starting point, believing in its untapped potential. As the country transformed into a regional business hub, Ongresso grew alongside it, expanding across Latin America. Today, we are proud to be a trusted partner for global companies seeking reliable support to accelerate their market expansion in the region.
