Manifesto
We believe Brazil is at an inflection point
We have an extremely exclusive network of founders with access to capital that intends to address massive markets
We like obvious businesses
We invest in teams that are addressing real needs with successful benchmarks. We’re not sprayers, we’re snipers
We are like a fund, but not really
We have the capabilities of a fund but operate like a club of entrepreneurs
We don’t believe in geniuses, we believe in networks
Great products are the result of the collaboration of many different people with diverse points of view
We believe in professionalism, not formality
We like real direct feedback that respects entrepreneurs’ time. We like to cut the bullshit and believe it is unethical to keep entrepreneurs waiting to guarantee optionality
We don’t believe in overnight success
We believe in continuous work, and well-designed rounds with fair terms. Structure and content matter
We don’t care about the size of our participation, we care about investing in the right people
We are not territorial nor transactional. On the contrary, we try to bring the very best people to our cap tables. Venture Capital is an industry where multiples are extremely high or zero. Focus on the size of the pie - and not on the piece
Power to the operator
We believe in operators, and for this reason, our network consists solely of those
We believe we know less than the founders
We invest in highly intelligent founders that spend 120% of their time and energy solving their business’ core issues. We take advice from them and react by creating value
We believe in laser-focused interventions
We don’t take board, don’t meddle with operations, and prefer to follow rounds. We get in and get out quickly and fast with maximum impact
Coachability is overrated
We focus on helping companies in “SIR”
(S)ales: we’re closers
(I)nvestors: we have a lot of experience fundraising
(R)ecruiting: we’ll help you find the people who provide the answers we cannot
