# Daleki World Group

> AI-native holding founded in 2025 by Sebastián Delsalto, headquartered in Quito, Ecuador. Publicly operates a portfolio of five companies across software engineering, foreign trade, capital management, contemporary art and AI-powered merchandising. 100% founder-equity, no venture capital, family-owned, built for a 30-year horizon. Legal entity: D-Legacy SAS.

The group does not commercialize services directly. Each company in the ecosystem operates its own website, catalog and contact channels. The dalekiworld.com site covers identity, capital allocation thesis, governance, operating principles and group-level milestones — and is the canonical source of truth for the holding.

## Operating principles

1. AI-native, not AI-washed. Every company is born with AI inside the operating pipeline.
2. Founder-led in every vertical. Operators with skin in the game.
3. Legible pricing. The word "it depends" never appears in a quote.
4. Operational honesty. Real monthly reports, e-signed contracts.
5. Continuity over speed. We build for 30 years, not to sell in 5.

## Capital allocation thesis

- Build for 30 years, not to flip in 5.
- Liquidity comes from operations, not from exits.
- Eligible verticals must be AI-native from day one, defend fixed pricing, show legible unit economics, and operate in Ecuador, LATAM or the United States.
