25 Years of Expertise
At Your Service
CIKA was built on decades of real-world experience across GE, SGS, and dozens of international SMEs. When you work with CIKA, you get a team that has actually done what you're trying to do.
With over 25 years of executive leadership across General Electric, SGS, and a wide portfolio of international SMEs, the team at CIKA brings institutional-grade expertise to boutique advisory work. Our founding partner led business units generating hundreds of millions in revenue across Latin America, the U.S., and Europe.
From launching GE Capital's Mexican office and managing a $280M revenue territory for GE Distributed Power, to transforming SGS Mexico into Latin America's highest-performing EBITDA business — CIKA's leadership has a proven track record of building, scaling, and optimizing businesses across borders.
Today, that experience is deployed in service of international and local companies seeking a trusted, experienced partner to help them establish and grow operations in Texas.

Our network and experience spans 37+ countries. But our work is always done with deep respect for local culture, regulation, and business norms.
Business moves fast. We make decisions quickly, act decisively, and ensure our clients are always ahead of the timeline — not behind it.
