Media

BIES started out as a media project and has since grown into one of El Salvador's leading voices on entrepreneurship, Bitcoin, and the country's ongoing transformation. Through interviews, deep dives, and on-the-ground reporting, we help builders stay informed with high-signal news, while also providing a platform for builders to tell their stories and showcase their projects. We frequently collaborate with partners to produce high-quality content that supports the entrepreneurs and builders in our ecosystem.

About Build in El Salvador

BIES emerged as a solution to the struggles of entrepreneurship in an unfamiliar country, and the pressures of having to navigate the journey alone.

What began as an informal gathering of entrepreneurs and friends became a thriving network of builders, investors, vendors, peers, and government officials coordinating on projects and contributing to the growth and revitalization of El Salvador.
