The firm combines sector expertise and a strategic perspective with investment structures tailored to each opportunity.
Across more than 25 years of activity, FIR Capital has structured more than 10 funds, oversees over R$1 billion in assets under management, and has made more than 50 investments, including more than 20 successful cases. Its two main vehicles are venture capital funds and private equity funds, both investing in high-growth companies; the private equity arm structures each deal individually.
Beyond capital allocation, the firm provides fund management and investment administration, and works alongside founders on strategy and value creation - offering strategic and financial guidance to portfolio companies as a core part of its investment approach.
