Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Futurum Capital?
Co-founders Alessandro Machado and Luiz Otávio Campos serve as managing partners and lead all investment decisions. Both came from operator backgrounds before launching the firm in 2016, and the partnership remains intentionally small.
What investment stages does Futurum Capital target?
The firm writes first-check seed and early-stage rounds, typically under $1 million. It often leads or co-leads rounds at the pre-institutional stage, 12 to 18 months before US multi-stage funds enter the same deals.
Does Futurum Capital invest only in Brazil, or across Latin America?
Brazil is the primary market, but the firm has selectively backed companies in Mexico and Colombia. The geographic thesis follows the same software-modernization pattern that drew early capital to Brazilian enterprise startups.
Which sectors does Futurum Capital focus on?
The firm invests in B2B software and technology-enabled services, with a portfolio that includes enterprise SaaS, fintech infrastructure, digital health, agritech, and proptech. Consumer-facing startups fall outside its typical mandate.
What is Futurum Capital's posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?
Futurum routinely co-invests with other early-stage Brazilian funds and angel syndicates. Portfolio company Logcomex's seed round, for example, included Canary and Honey Island Capital alongside Futurum.
