Higinio O. Maycotte (“H.O.”) is a Partner at OwnerCo, where he leads platform and technology strategy with a mission to make business ownership simpler, smarter, and more connected. He brings a founder’s perspective to OwnerCo’s vision of “built by owners, for owners,” ensuring the platform is designed around real-world challenges and opportunities that business owners face at critical inflection points.
Over his career, H.O. has founded and scaled multiple technology companies, including Molecula (now Circuit), Umbel (now MVP Index), RateGenius, and the Texas Tribune. These ventures gave him a front-row seat to both the transformative potential of technology and the human challenges of adoption — lessons that shape how he builds tools for OwnerCo’s owner community today.
At OwnerCo, H.O. combines his entrepreneurial background with deep experience in data, automation, and AI to design systematic approaches that make advanced technology accessible for Main Street and mid-market business owners. His work is guided by a simple principle: technology should serve as an enabler, helping owners preserve what they’ve built, unlock growth, and create opportunities for the next generation.
In H.O.'s words
“Technology should never replace the grit it takes to be an owner. It should amplify it. At OwnerCo, we believe the right tools make owners more resilient, not less essential.”
— Higinio "H.O." Maycotte, OwnerCo
