Vision and History
Brazil Venture Capital was born in 2014 with the aim of supporting Brazilian startups and contributing to the growth of a better ecosystem, creating an ideal situation for entrepreneurs to reach their full potential.
Many startups are supported by angel investors and/or accelerators at very early stages. However, not every startup can make make that "big jump" on their own, just by receiving larger investments from venture capital funds.
Brazil Venture Capital focuses on this decisive phase for the success of a business. Working together with entrepreneurs to contact potential clients; design growth strategies; develop financial plans for subsequent investment rounds; and helping to recruit new team members.
Additionally, the BVC network offers the opportunity to expand operations to the US, Europe and Asia.
