Hi, I'm Luis Fernando Valladares.

For two decades, I've been building HR and technology businesses that unite people, process and technology across Latin America, the United States and Europe.

I was born in Honduras and studied at the University of Oklahoma. After starting my career in Dallas, I returned home and founded RPC in 2006. Over the past 20 years, RPC has become a workforce and HR partner behind a wide range of local and international operations in Honduras — helping companies enter the market, establish and manage local workforces, deploy national sales and distribution teams, support manufacturing operations, and mobilize personnel for major construction and infrastructure projects. That work has ranged from managing nationwide commercial teams of more than 150 people across traditional markets, warehouses and supermarkets, to supporting the construction of Pavana Solar, a 24 MW solar energy project in Choluteca. Some clients have needed a small team to establish their presence in Honduras; others have required hundreds of people operating across the country. Today, RPC stands behind more than 1,000 employees nationwide across Employer of Record, HR outsourcing, recruitment, workforce management and project staffing.

Running workforces at that scale showed me another gap: there was no easy way to connect people in the field with real-time operational data. That search led me to doForms, first as RPC's strategic technology partner for Latin America and later as a member of its board beginning in 2018. I helped build doForms' LATAM partner network and today, as Director of International Development, I'm applying that experience to its expansion across Europe.

In 2021, I founded RPC Digital Services in the United States as a technology company focused on bringing together the platforms and partnerships needed to solve operational problems differently. That same year, my family and I moved to Valencia, Spain.

In 2024, I was tasked with establishing doForms' European presence in Madrid, where we're working to expand the company's reseller and partner network across Europe.

Then, in 2025, through RPC Digital Services and together with Lynxsparc Tech, we built Meshra — a guest-facing commerce platform that connects content, service, ordering and payment for hotels and hospitality venues while working with the technology infrastructure a property already has in place rather than asking operators to replace it. It's now live and ready for use.

There has been a common thread throughout that journey: understand how people actually work, identify where process gets in their way, and use technology and the right partnerships to make the operation better.

The map keeps growing, and so does the list of things worth building.
