Beto Altamirano, CEO and co-founder of Irys, is the first candidate from outside City Council to enter the 2025 race for the open mayor’s seat.
Political outsider Alberto “ Beto ” Altamirano has entered the mayor’s race, ending months of speculation that he would run for the open seat in 2025. The tech entrepreneur released a two-minute, 20-second video Friday ahead of his Saturday campaign launch at Southtown ’s The Friendly Spot . “It’s not about one of us, it’s about all of us and together we can build the future of this great city,” Altamirano says in the video. “A future where every child has access to the care and education they need.
Veteran campaign strategist Kelton Morgan, who worked on Ron Nirenberg’s successful 2017 mayoral campaign and 2019 re-election campaign, estimates it will take candidates up to $300,000 to run an effective 2025 mayoral campaign that will get them into a runoff. ‘Not Henry’s candidate’ Altamirano made a name for himself in San Antonio’s burgeoning tech scene. Forbes named Altamirano to its 2018 “30 Under 30” list of social entrepreneurs.
