Venture Capital · Spanish-speaking Latin America

Investing in LatAm's Future

We look to invest in Latin America's best technology companies, working closely with exceptional founders to support their success. |

A platform built from the region, for the region

Amador was founded in January 2020 with the vision of building a world-class venture capital platform to serve "New Economy" entrepreneurs in Spanish-speaking Latin America. We found ourselves focused on a compelling opportunity: an emerging innovation ecosystem ready to take off, and a persistent gap in the early-stage capital needed to help it thrive.

We are a team that is passionate about venture capital and, more importantly, about working with entrepreneurs. Our culture is built on transparency, respect, and the free flow of ideas and information.
