Documented cause
Reworth built an employee benefits and financial wellness platform for Colombian enterprises, reaching 200 corporate clients. A co-founder dispute in 2021 led to the departure of the founding CTO — the technical co-founder who had built all enterprise integrations. Without the CTO, product development stalled, integration maintenance fell behind, and enterprise clients began churning. The company could not rebuild technical capacity and shut down in 2022.
Lesson
“In enterprise B2B, the CTO's institutional knowledge of client integrations is a critical single point of failure. Document integrations obsessively, cross-train teams, and resolve co-founder disputes before they become irreconcilable.”
