Marcos Digliodo
Founder and President
Marcos Digliodo is the Founder and President of Tech2Elevate. As a New American coming to the United States in 2003 to attend the University of Colorado Boulder, Marcos learned first-hand the challenges faced by minorities as a new resident of the United States. Tech2Elevate was created to help others with technology because, not only did Marcos experience technology challenges coming to the United States from a third-world country, but he also witnessed many people right here in Beaver County facing these same challenges.
Marcos Digliodo used his international business education to become an entrepreneur in the United States, first as the founder of a wine distribution company, followed by the creation of Paramount Pursuits, an economic development consulting firm serving Pennsylvania and Ohio. Paramount Pursuits consists of a small business incubation program, work-space for entrepreneurs and community revitalization consulting services. In addition to serving as a mentor for Spanish-speaking entrepreneurs in the incubation program, Marcos is responsible for the day-to-day operations, all fiscal matters and contract compliance, and employee management for Paramount Pursuits.
Marcos played an integral role in expanding the company from one location in Beaver County to multiple locations throughout Pennsylvania and Ohio.From 2017 to 2022, Marcos served as the Municipality Liaison for the Beaver County Main Street Revitalization Contract secured by Paramount Pursuits. In this role, he worked with municipal representatives from seven communities in Beaver County to revitalize their Main Street Commercial Corridors. Marcos maintained excellent communication with both the municipalities and the local revitalization organizations (composed of business owners, residents and municipal leaders), and encouraged collaboration to ensure the goals of the strategic plan were achieved. In this role, Marcos facilitated community meetings, brought people together to collaborate to revitalize their communities and worked to reduce vacancies in the communities he served.
Marcos has used the same drive that secured him a Division 1 tennis scholarship to create and implement programming to help others change their lives.
