Investment Thesis

Morro Ventures operates as a company builder at its core, serving as deeply engaged partners to founders. Their philosophy emphasizes long-term partnership over transactional investment: “A commitment from us isn’t just a momentary investment in an idea — it’s a long-term partnership with the people who bring it to life.” They leverage nearly five decades of experience (through parent company Advent-Morro Equity Partners, established 1989) to provide stability, meaningful support, and expert guidance. The firm believes in unlocking value in overlooked geographies and sectors, backing proven operators tackling regional-specific challenges with flexible financing solutions.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Unmatched local knowledge combined with deep fund management expertise, led by GPs with decades of private equity and entrepreneurial experience in the region
  • Puerto Rico advantage: bridge between LatAm and U.S. markets, curated deal flow from accelerators, dual market access, skilled bilingual talent, supportive regulatory and tax environment
  • Focus on overlooked geographies and 'boring' industries with big margins that others ignore
  • Second-time founder focus - backing proven operators with unfinished business
  • Hyper-focused portfolio strategy (only 5-10 high-conviction investments per year) enabling deep commitment
  • Flexible financing schemes including convertible notes, preferred equity, revenue-based financing, and venture debt tailored to Caribbean ecosystem realities
  • Comprehensive post-investment support: U.S. market launch facilitation, cross-border expansion leverage, talent recruitment, follow-on investor connections
  • Female-led, founder-focused approach with emphasis on backing underrepresented founders
  • Proven exit track record across four prior funds with disciplined, strategic backing
