S12 Bonus: The Global Talent Mirage: Why Rigid Immigration Frameworks Fail Elite Tech Teams and the Rise of the Global Mobility OS with Ramiro Roballos, Co-Founder & CEO of Tukki
Jul 9, 2026 · Season 12 · 22 min
Making immigration policy the way it should be
Ramiro Roballos grew up in Buenos Aires, and 6 or 7 years ago, moved to Miami and now lives in Buffalo, NY. His path to entrepreneurship has been different, as he started out as a musician, and then an orchestra conductor for several years. He eventually got into building how companies, starting his own music school and his own orchestra. Eventually, he got his MBA, worked for McKinsey and some startups before doing his own. Outside of tech, he is married to a cellist, and keeps playing music for fun. He also enjoys Formula 1, and watches every change he gets.
Ramiro went through the immigration process in the US, and was very disappointed in the quality of the service, given the importance of this process in determining a pillar life outcome. He felt there should be a better way, one that has excellent service and quality, and centralizes the expansive process into one platform.
This is the creation story of Tukki.
