We recently closed our fundraise in December '25 and have been actively deploying. To date we've invested in 6 (in process with #7) companies across Latam, with plans to back 8 more over the next 12 months. We write $200–250K checks at the Pre-Seed/Seed stage. What we look for: -Founders (ideally co-founders) with the drive to scale across the Americas — ideally including Brazil or Mexico — or into the US. -Early traction. We need to see that the dogs are eating the dog food. -A focus on commerce, logistics, or fintech. Beyond capital, we bring: -Venture partners in Mexico City, San Francisco, and Rio de Janeiro — key for a soft landing when entering new markets. -26 LPs who are founders and business owners across 7 countries in the Americas, with exits to Uber, PayPal, Walmart, and more. Deep experience scaling and exiting. -Active corporate relationships in commerce, logistics, and fintech, which we use to open doors for our portfolio. One example: Macarena Liu Rivas Liu and our venture partner Leonardo Lima helped Wareclouds land a new client and investor in Brazil. Below you can see more details on our process with Corporates. If this is a good fit for you, let’s talk.
