Momentum VC
Momentum VC was founded in Mexico City and has expanded its footprint to six offices across North America and Europe, including San Francisco, New York, San Mateo, Folsom, and Zurich. The firm operates as a venture capital and private equity investor, focusing on technology companies at various stages from seed to growth. Its structure is distinct from a traditional single-family office, functioning more as a multi-jurisdictional asset manager that sources deals across regions. The firm invests across the technology sector, with a particular emphasis on enterprise software, fintech, and digital health. It has participated in deals ranging from early-stage rounds to growth equity investments, often co-investing with other venture firms. Known portfolio companies include Clip, the Mexican payments company later acquired by Stripe (per public record, 2021), and Kavak, the Mexican used-car platform (per public record, 2019). Geographic focus spans Latin America, the United States, and select European markets. Momentum VC manages capital for a network of high-net-worth individuals and family offices, with the firm's team including professionals with backgrounds in private equity, venture capital, and technology. The firm has no publicly disclosed AUM, but its multi-office structure and deal activity suggest a sizable deployment capacity. No recent operational events from the last 24 months have been publicly reported. A structural differentiator is Momentum VC's hybrid model: it operates with venture capital fund structures but also serves as a platform for co-investment and direct deal flow for its investor base. This allows the firm to act as both a fund manager and a deal originator, bridging the gap between traditional VC and family office direct investing. The multi-city office network further distinguishes it, enabling local market access across North America, Latin America, and Europe.
