Our philosophy
Our founders are technology and investment entrepreneurs that have seen how previous tech waves, such as internet, cloud and mobile, have reshaped one industry after another in the last 25 years. They founded Finnovista in 2013 with the vision that technology entrepreneurship and startup mindset will transform financial services for the better.
We are firm believers that the best way to transform financial services is by investing and supporting Fintech founders at the earliest stages. We are completely focused on being the first investor and most trusted VC partner for the best Fintech entrepreneurs in Spanish-speaking LATAM.
Fintech companies confront unique challenges and needs to build and scale their products and services.
Fintech is hard, Fintech in LATAM is harder,
but you are not alone
We believe in the power of the Fintech ecosystem and traditional financial services industry to help early Fintech startups with their expertise, contacts, investments and other key assets.
Unlike other industries, we believe that many times Fintech startups need to collaborate and partner with traditional financial institutions and other corporations. This is especially the case for Fintech infrastructure and embedded Fintech plays, where a balanced collaboration with incumbents can make the difference between accelerated success and failure. We can bridge the gap between the old and the new for Fintech startups that require it by helping it build balanced partnerships with key industry players in the region.
Profound financial pain still exists in Spanish-speaking LATAM. That is the problem to be solved. We are convinced that Fintech will become the next wave of technology that will be embedded in every sector, thus igniting digital financial innovation and serving digital financial services to everyone’s day-to-day experience across the region.
For Fintech entrepreneurs to reach the potential in LATAM, they need:
To solve the equity gap at the earliest stages
To tap into ecosystem and industry expertise, network and assets
Finnovista.vc is the trusted partner that aims to assist entrepreneurs in this challenging journey and set their venture on a sustainable growth path.
