About the Author

Erwin Castro

Founder & Editor, The CODEW — covering Tech M&A, AI, SaaS, and enterprise software since 2014.

Erwin Castro founded The CODEW in 2014 — originally launched under a different name as a general technology site. Over time, its focus narrowed toward startup funding and technology mergers and acquisitions, and it was later rebranded as The CODEW to reflect that specialization.

Erwin's reporting on startup funding, Tech M&A, software and technology news began at US Blasting News. He writes technology-related news and updates for IBTimes and University Herald, and his byline has also appeared on Seeking Alpha and Sportskeeda, covering markets, technology, and business. He is a technology and financial news writer, digital marketing specialist, and web developer.

Coverage on The CODEW is built from primary sources — SEC filings, company disclosures, product testing, and direct reporting — rather than aggregation. Erwin personally researches, writes, and edits every piece published under The CODEW byline, and runs the site's editorial, research, and publishing infrastructure end-to-end.
