Elaniin takes a shortcut from San Salvador to LA

It was the classic birth of a tech start-up. Five years ago, El Salvador's  Elaniin Tech Company was born in the home of its founder Adrián Gómez.

Now Elaniin Tech has announced a $3.5 million expansion of its operations in Central America and the United States, with the establishment of an office in Los Angeles and an expansion in San Salvador.

Elaniin began by designing websites. Other companies in El Salvador used its services and by 2015 it launched its digital strategy department.
