Born in Cuba, arriving in Miami as a young child, and spending more than three decades in Puerto Rico, Vicente Pimienta’s story is one of resilience, reinvention, and an embrace of change.

In this episode of Sabor a Freedom, Vicente joins Judy Pino to share the experiences that shaped his journey—from starting his first internet company in 1996 to helping thousands of entrepreneurs navigate the digital revolution and now preparing professionals and businesses for the age of artificial intelligence.

They go beyond the chat to explore what AI can actually mean for our everyday lives and work. How do we use it effectively? What skills will matter in an AI-powered economy? And rather than fearing the technology, how can entrepreneurs and professionals learn to make it work for them?

Vicente also shares his approach to human-AI collaboration and the RUTA™ Method, built around a simple idea: getting better results from AI begins with learning to think and communicate more clearly.

And, of course, no episode of Sabor a Freedom is complete without a taste of home. Born in Cuba and raised in Puerto Rico, Vicente has a heart for both islands and their food. He shares two dishes that represent those roots: Ajiaco Cubano, a hearty Cuban stew, and Serenata Puertorriqueña, a traditional Puerto Rican bacalao salad.
