🔒 $•• – $••Thesis
Latin American and LatinX founders are systematically underserved by global venture. Fintech will be the transformational category for the region given large unbanked populations and fragmented financial infrastructure. Pygma backs pre-seed fintech and B2B SaaS founders with Latin roots through an accelerator-first, invest-later model.
Likely not a fit for
No consumer hardware, non-tech businesses, or companies without a clear Latin American or LatinX founding team. Does not invest in AAA gaming, pure media, or non-fintech consumer apps.
