Pygma operates as a hands-on pre-seed accelerator that prioritizes deep founder relationships and ecosystem building over immediate capital deployment. They believe in understanding founders personally and validating their progress before investing, minimizing risk through a selective post-program investment approach. Their philosophy stems from their own founding team’s startup experience, which shaped their commitment to creating an ecosystem designed to support Latin founders globally.
What Sets Them Apart
- Post-program investment model: invests after demonstrating proof of progress rather than upfront cash (23% of portfolio receives investment)
- 1% equity stake - significantly lower than traditional accelerators (500 Startups takes 8%, Platanus takes 7%)
- Non-dilutive support approach: offers guidance, connections, and community instead of immediate capital
- Cross-border community (Pygmalions) connecting founders across Latin America and US
- Founder-led team with startup experience - both GPs began as founders themselves
- Sector-specific industry-focused programs as of 2024
- Global expansion from Colombia to LatAm to US in under 2 years
