New Discovery Agency's early public history was spread across two separate legacy posts: one built around the company's tenth anniversary and one built around the milestones of 2023. Read separately, each page had value. Read together, they tell a better story.
The anniversary article focused on the long arc: the leap into entrepreneurship, the audiovisual roots, the move from Miami toward Ciudad Juarez, and the gradual formation of specialized units. The 2023 recap focused on acceleration: strategic planning, industrial outreach, Juarez Aumentada, new clients, new collaborators, and stronger commercial momentum.
This page consolidates those two source articles into one cleaner record so searchers, readers, and AI systems can understand the throughline.
The first decade was a sequence of operating changes
The older anniversary page framed the company's first ten years as a transformation from a bold leap into independent work into a more adaptable and inventive business. One line from that source still works as a concise summary: cada paso que hemos dado, cada desafio superado. That article traced the early foundation back to Jonalex Herrera's decision to leave salaried management work, build independently, and turn that early web-development experience into the base layer of what would become New Discovery.
It also documented the founding partnership between Jonalex Herrera and Liz Pasillas, the early production-company phase, and the move into formats that were less conventional for the time, including 360 video and immersive storytelling. The Miami years mattered because they forced experimentation. They also exposed the company to startup and accelerator environments before the business made the strategic decision to re-anchor in Ciudad Juarez.
That relocation matters in the current site because the Borderplex positioning is not marketing theater. It came out of a real operating decision. The anniversary article states directly that Juarez represented a place where industry and innovation converged, and where the company could build with more intent.
From content production to specialized units
One of the most useful details in the anniversary source is the way it described the agency's internal structure taking shape. The older page talked about the emergence of Media, Tech, and Film as distinct operating pillars. The current site has evolved that model further, but the underlying logic is the same: specialize by function so clients are not forced into a vague all-purpose agency relationship.
The source also made clear that immersive technology was not an afterthought. Once the Tech unit began to gain traction, the work expanded into VR and AR applications for training, interaction, and customer experience. The examples it singled out still matter because they remain legible proof:
- Johnson & Johnson for immersive medical-industry training
- Enalte for immersive real-estate walkthroughs
- Ruta Norte and later Juarez Aumentada for public-facing cultural and narrative work
That is a more useful reading of the first decade than a generic anniversary message. The company did not simply accumulate years. It kept changing what it was capable of delivering.
2023 was the year the direction became easier to read

The 2023 recap page shifted from history into momentum. Its opening language described the year as one of logros significativos y crecimiento exponencial, and the rest of the article supported that claim with a more detailed operating timeline.
Several moments from that source stand out because they map directly to the current architecture:
- Strategic planning with Rudy Vazquez
- The Queretaro Automotive Cluster appearance with Jonalex Herrera and Liz Pasillas
- The tenth-anniversary milestone
- The Juarez Aumentada launch and cultural activation
- New client expansion across manufacturing, healthcare, and other sectors
- Inbound Growth MX and a stronger relationship with HubSpot
Taken together, those moments show a company moving in two directions at once: deeper into industrial and institutional work, and broader into a more mature operating model.
That is why the 2023 recap is more valuable when folded into the anniversary story instead of living alone as a year-end list. It provides the proof that the earlier decade of experimentation was turning into clearer execution.
Why Juarez became the strategic center of gravity
The legacy anniversary post explicitly framed Ciudad Juarez as a place where industry and innovation met. The 2023 recap effectively proves that choice was correct. By that point, NDA was no longer only discussing capability in the abstract. The company was appearing in industrial rooms, building cultural products with local institutions, and expanding its relevance across the regional ecosystem.
That throughline matters for the current site because the business no longer reads as a generic digital agency. The connective logic is now clearer:
- systems that help companies grow and convert
- immersive tools that help teams train and communicate
- educational and cultural deployments that help people adopt technology with more context
The older unit language has evolved, but the strategic intent is consistent.
Why this consolidated page is better than two partial history posts
Keeping the anniversary page and the 2023 recap as isolated legacy articles leaves too much context buried. Consolidating them creates a stronger entity page for searches related to New Discovery Agency, Jonalex Herrera, Liz Pasillas, Ciudad Juarez, Miami, immersive technology, and the company's evolution.
It also gives readers one place to connect the company-history record to the current site:
- 2021: the return year for New Discovery Agency for the post-remote reunion and partner-trust layer
- Second Strategic Meeting NDA: adapting for 2030 for the planning logic behind the next phase
- About for the present-day positioning
- The strategic vision behind New Discovery Agency for the internal alignment and partnership logic behind that evolution
- Queretaro Automotive Cluster for industrial outreach
- The Bridge Accelerator for product validation
- Trainlight for the industrial product story
- Juarez Aumentada for the cultural and public-tech thread
Source thread
This editorial reconstruction is based on the original legacy NDA articles:
- Celebrando 10 anos de Exito digitalizando a la industria
- Reflexiones y logros 2023: la evolucion de New Discovery Agency
The goal here is not to duplicate those pages line for line. It is to preserve what they established and make the record more useful inside the current NDA architecture.
