BEHIND THE SCENES *
In 2015, Ana Bolena Ortiz left her corporate career to do something no one had done before: build a company from inside a creator’s world. Her brother Armando Ortiz El Mindo wasn’t just the first talent. He became the co-founder and CCO of what would grow into a creator-operated holding.
Today, Ranga operates across talent management, brand partnerships, proprietary events, and creator-owned businesses with 30+ talents, 200+ brand partnerships, and Minfull, a proprietary live event with 10,000+ attendees in Cali, Colombia.
ANA ORTIZ
CEO & Co-Founder, Ranga Media
Ana Ortiz is the architect behind one of Latin America’s most distinctive creator ecosystems. An Industrial Engineer turned strategic operator, she co-founded Ranga Media 11+ years ago with a clear bet: that creators aren’t just talent they’re the industry.
Under her leadership, Ranga has structured a full-stack creator economy operation: from talent management and brand strategy to proprietary events and creator-owned brands serving both the Latin American and U.S. Hispanic markets.
Her commitment to continuous growth has led her to inspire emerging and professional creators through her entrepreneurship and digital growth conferences, bolstered by her certification as an EXMA Speaker.
ARMANDO ORTIZ
CCO & Co-Founder, Ranga Media
Armando Ortiz, known as El Mindo, is one of the most influential Latino creators in Latin America and the U.S. and the CCO and co-founder of Ranga Media, the holding he helped build from the ground up. He has earned recognition in the digital realm through his work on various advertising campaigns, where he leverages innovative resources and native content that authentically incorporates brand messages. With humor and storytelling, he resonates with his community in a genuine, organic way.
El Mindo initially worked at one of the country’s most prestigious banks. However, after an accident required him to take time off, he began creating digital content and eventually chose to resign and pursue social media as a lifestyle and career.
Certified as an Exma Speaker, he continues to deliver impactful, life-changing messages. His creativity, charisma, and spontaneity are evident in every project. Today, his ecosystem includes Min Burger, Minfull, La FOM, Colab x Mindo, and MinTown Fest — proof that the model works: influence converted into industries that operate, generate revenue, and scale.
