Show Notes

In this deep-dive episode of The Victory Podcast, host Travis Cody sits down with Beto Pallares — a venture capitalist, professor, and serial entrepreneur whose story begins as a four-year-old immigrant from Ciudad Juárez and unfolds into a life of strategy, service, and scale.

From being raised by entrepreneurial parents and journaling poetry in childhood, to managing venture funds and mentoring the next generation of founders, Beto shares his hard-won insights on what it really takes to scale a company past the million-dollar plateau. Whether you're a founder looking for funding, or a business owner wondering why your growth has stalled, this conversation is filled with wisdom you can use.

Beto reveals what he looks for before investing, the mindset differences between "rich vs. king" entrepreneurs, and why long-term vision is your ultimate competitive edge. He also shares powerful stories—from family businesses to billion-dollar boardrooms—proving that impact and ethics aren’t mutually exclusive.
