About us
This is a people-first group for indie hackers, founders, and startup builders who are actively creating technology products in Riviera Maya and Yucatán.
Riviera Maya has all the ingredients of a strong tech hub — international talent, solid infrastructure, and a growing number of people building interesting things. What’s often missing is a dedicated space to connect with peers, exchange ideas, and grow together. This group exists to change that.
We want to bring together people who design, build, and ship software: from indie tools and micro-SaaS to larger startup products. The focus is on real projects, real challenges, and thoughtful conversations — not hype or surface-level networking.
What we do
We organize monthly or bimonthly in-person meetups across Riviera Maya (and eventually Yucatán), including:
- Informal meetups and open conversations
- Short talks by local or visiting builders
- Practical workshops around product, technology, and growth
Events are conversation-driven, welcoming, and focused on learning from each other.
Who this group is for:
- Indie hackers and micro-SaaS founders
- SaaS and startup founders
- Technical co-founders and engineers building products
- Product-driven agency owners
The common denominator isn’t company size or stage, it’s practice. Members are actively building, iterating, and learning from real users.
Why join?
- Meet other builders who are actually working on products
- Share what you’re building and get thoughtful feedback
- Discover collaborations, co-founders, or new ideas
- Help shape a visible and vibrant tech community in Riviera Maya
If you enjoy building technology to solve real problems and value meaningful peer connections, you’ll feel at home here.
P.S. This is a community-driven group focused on connection, collaboration, and learning, not sales or promotion.

## De qué se trata
Este es un grupo centrado en las personas para indie hackers, fundadores y builders de startups que están creando activamente productos tecnológicos en la Riviera Maya y Yucatán.
La Riviera Maya tiene todos los ingredientes para convertirse en un hub tecnológico sólido: talento internacional, buena infraestructura y cada vez más personas construyendo cosas interesantes. Lo que suele faltar es un espacio dedicado para conectar con pares, intercambiar ideas y crecer juntos. Este grupo existe para cambiar eso.
Queremos reunir a personas que diseñan, construyen y lanzan software: desde herramientas indie y micro-SaaS hasta productos de startups más grandes. El enfoque está en proyectos reales, retos reales y conversaciones con sustancia, no en hype ni networking superficial.
***
## Qué hacemos
Organizamos meetups presenciales mensuales o bimestrales en distintos puntos de la Riviera Maya (y eventualmente en Yucatán), que incluyen:
- Encuentros informales y conversaciones abiertas
- Charlas cortas de builders locales o visitantes
- Workshops prácticos sobre producto, tecnología y crecimiento
Los eventos están pensados para fomentar la conversación, son abiertos y acogedores, y se enfocan en aprender unos de otros.
***
## Para quién es este grupo
- Indie hackers y fundadores de micro-SaaS
- Fundadores de SaaS y startups
- Co-fundadores técnicos e ingenieros que están construyendo productos
- Dueños de agencias con enfoque en producto
El denominador común no es el tamaño de la empresa ni la etapa, sino la práctica. Los miembros están construyendo, iterando y aprendiendo a partir de usuarios reales.
***
## ¿Por qué unirte?
- Conoce a otros builders que realmente están trabajando en productos
- Comparte lo que estás construyendo y recibe feedback de calidad
- Descubre colaboraciones, posibles co-fundadores o nuevas ideas
- Ayuda a construir una comunidad tech visible y vibrante en la Riviera Maya
Si disfrutas crear tecnología para resolver problemas reales y valoras las conexiones auténticas entre pares, este es tu lugar.
***
P.D. Este es un grupo impulsado por la comunidad, enfocado en conexión, colaboración y aprendizaje. No en ventas ni promoción.

The goal is simple: bring together people who actually build to connect, share what they’re working on, exchange feedback, and create meaningful synergies within the local tech ecosystem.
By meeting regularly across Riviera Maya (Cancún, PDC, Tulum), we aim to strengthen the builder community regionally and create the conditions where collaborations happen naturally, including the possibility of finding your next collaborator or co-founder.
