Argentina Beltran

Founder and CEO, InclusifAI. Argentina Beltran is the Founder and CEO of InclusifAI, a funding infrastructure and intelligence company working to improve how founders access capital and how funding decisions get made. With a career spanning banking, life sciences, innovation ecosystems, and entrepreneurship, Argentina brings a practical understanding of the systems that shape who receives capital, who gets overlooked, and how technology can either reinforce or challenge those patterns. Through InclusifAI, she is building tools and intelligence that help founders navigate funding opportunities while giving institutions better insight into the gaps within their capital-access systems. Argentina is also the author of What We Teach the Machines: The Critical Importance of EI in the Age of AI. In the book, she examines how the emotional patterns, biases, fears, and assumptions we inherit can become embedded in the artificial intelligence systems shaping healthcare, hiring, education, finance, and human relationships. Her work argues that emotional intelligence is not a soft skill, but an essential design principle for building technology that is wise, safe, and accountable. Argentina speaks at the intersection of AI, funding intelligence, capital allocation, inclusive innovation, and the human responsibility behind the systems we build.
