WHO WE ARE

We are entrepreneurs just like you. Working hard and dreaming big, we suffered from lack of proper advice or resources on many occasions. Too often we witnessed great opportunities evaporate. This framed our vision. Our experiences motivated us to find a way to help the best entrepreneurs transform their dreams into successful companies. Helping them to create real value and have positive impact in their communities. With Nazca Ventures, we have transformed this vision into a reality. It is the first early-stage tech fund tailored for Latin America. We select the best entrepreneurs, and provide them with capital, world-class mentorship and a strong network of partners. With these core components we facilitate the creation of high impact regional companies. Ultimately, we want to create a more meritocratic entrepreneurial ecosystem in Latin America. One that rewards innovation, execution and ingenuity.
