Pioneer Investors International

Investing globally has always been our instinct. Since launching our Early Stage and Growth Funds in San Francisco, we’ve established Early Stage funds in Asia, Europe, and South America. We created these funds to lead rounds at every stage, in every geography. We are actively on the ground across continents, seeing local trends up close, searching for top founders, and bringing them our world of resources. Once we commit to a team, we go to the ends of the earth – connecting entrepreneurs to each other, to customers, and to insights from distant markets – to help them become a global success.

We know it’s time for LATAM. Opportunities are vast and wide; experienced operators are building more startups than ever before. As founders, we don’t primarily back projects, we back founders: Who How what We understand deep regional problems, and look for operators obsessed with them. We love investing in people captivated by a specific, targeted problem; who are willing to try a million ways of solving it. If we invest in you, it’s because we believe in you. We let founders succeed following their ideas, convictions and objectives. We hate micromanaging and a big brother attitude. We’re here for the long-ride. We are looking for very long partnerships. We will work together from the start line to the finish line. We execute extremely targeted interventions. We will come in when you need us, execute, and help fix any issue. We support companies in between this framework: Soft landing: Entering a new country in Latam? We can support you expanding operations. Investment: We are very experienced raising capital, and our VC network expands throughout regions. Network: Whoever you need to contact, we most probably have access to them. You’re an email away from the most experienced operators in the region.

We invest in and support ambitious entrepreneurs to get them where they want to go, whether at early stages with sights on the US market, or at later stages looking to the potential of Europe. Frontline today is a team of 17 people with a growing portfolio of over 80 exceptional companies across Europe and North America, and an expanding, global, investor base. EXPERTS IN EXPANSION Founders see what the world misses. In fast pursuit of opportunity, you make critical decisions with little certainty. We get it, because we’ve been there. Frontline is the venture firm for globally ambitious B2B companies on both sides of the Atlantic. Frontline Seed speeds up ideas at inception across Europe. Frontline X is a growth-stage fund, for fast and frictionless US-Europe expansion. WE'VE LEARNED IT THE HARD WAY As a team of entrepreneurs, we have built many businesses, many ways. And as a venture fund, we’ve helped tens of founders and CEOs cross the pond. We’ve scaled too – with team members in Dublin, London and San Francisco. Today, our team, LPs and advisors represent senior leadership at many of the world’s most successful B2B companies (Think: Segment, Stripe, Looker, Linkedin, Airtable, Google and Workday – to name a few). Collectively, we can add value when founders need it most – at company defining moments. CAPITAL IS CHEAP Look around; the venture market is drowning in noise. Hundreds of funds and millions of blogposts – all claiming to “add value” left and right. We believe that capital is cheap, and we know that value-add is not made equal. Our focus is clear; we back challengers with global ambition, and we dedicate our time to helping them fly higher – faster. Our experience makes us knowledgeable. Our global network makes us unique. Want more detail or first-hand accounts? we are happy to introduce you to our founders. SYMBIOSIS In nature, the best things work together. We see the landscape ahead and can warn you of the risks, while you stay strong and focused on your goals. Indispensable; that’s how we see our relationship.
