DOMO.VC

DOMO.VC was founded in 2016 in São Paulo, Brazil, by a group of partners with entrepreneurial and investing backgrounds. The team includes Marcello Gonçalves and Rodrigo Borges, who previously founded the e-commerce price-comparison platform Buscapé. The firm describes itself as a venture capital platform supporting early-stage technology startups across Latin America. The firm's strategy focuses on early-stage venture investments, including seed and growth rounds, across multiple sectors such as enterprise software, fintech, digital health, proptech, and mobility. DOMO.VC has been an early investor in Loggi, Gympass (now Wellhub), Hotmart, Descomplica, and Quero Educação (per the firm). Its portfolio also includes Wellbe, WillFly, Youpay, Zapay, Zeeng, Copybase, Pilea Labs, LUCA, PlayBPO, and Rede Vistorias. Geographically, the firm concentrates on Brazil and the broader Latin American region. DOMO.VC does not disclose its assets under management or total capital deployed. The firm lists 17 partners on its website but does not specify team size or additional office locations beyond São Paulo. No recent fundraising, close, or operational event for the last 24 months was identified from public sources. The firm's structure is distinctive for its large partner group, many of whom have operating experience as founders. DOMO.VC positions itself as a platform providing hands-on support to portfolio companies, rather than operating as a pure financial investor. The firm has not disclosed any family-office or institutional-LP backing, and its ownership and governance remain opaque.
